I can understand it tho. What other GUI toolkits have a markup language like HTML? It’s so easy compared to having 50 billion different widgets, adding stuff through code is so verbose…
The real benefit with Electron is the whole write-once-run-everywhere goal that Java was supposed to originally achieve, combined with super fast prototyping.
Maybe one day we’ll get a JIT/AOT version of HTML.
