If you don’t know what Electron is, it’s a wrapper of Chromium which allows you to develop desktop applications using Web technologies like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. It’s been largely adopted by big companies in the last few years because it allows developers to use these very common technologies to develop desktop apps and because it provides multi-platform support out of the box. It works as an extension of Node.js and it’s open-sourced, meaning that anybody can use it.
