Build cross-platform desktop apps with Electron

Electron is an open-source cross-platform framework built from Chromium & NodeJS to ease the pain of writing desktop applications.

Lots of popular & successful desktop applications have been written with Electron including Discord, Atom, Visual Studio Code, GitKraken, and many more.

Electron allows developers to use familiar web technologies like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to write native desktop applications, not web applications that "act" like desktop applications but run inside of themed browser windows.

An application written with Electron on MacOS will happily run on Windows or Linux (Pop_OS, an Ubuntu-based distribution was used in this video) with native styling because Electron does not attempt to impose its own style; it adopts the system style. ~~ Support the channel!
