Things people get wrong about Electron

Web technologies, particularly Electron, have become popular for building desktop applications. Electron uses Chromium to render UIs, allowing developers to combine HTML with native code. Many well-known apps like Visual Studio Code and Slack use Electron. Despite concerns about performance and size, Electron offers advantages in stability, security, and cross-platform development. Its success stems from meeting developers' needs to build desktop apps users enjoy, rather than competing with other technologies.
