If you’re not generally familiar with ElectronJs any web developer would for all intents and purposes be fairly quick to for the most part assume you literally have been living under a rock in a major way. In simple words ElectronJs allows web developers to specifically create desktop based applications just using html and css, I can generally see c++ developers cringing at this in a really big way. If you for the most part are really quick to cast down ElectronJs here is a list of apps that mostly are used by most of us made with ElectronJs:
1, which for all intents and purposes is quite significant. Whatsapp
2, which is fairly significant. Discord
3 in a kind of big way. Ms Teams
4. Slack
5. Twitch
Electron is pretty great because it allows corporations to particularly put their web developers to use, and particularly create desktop versions of their pwa’s. Electron provides access to for all intents and purposes native operating system APIs, allowing developers to for the most part build particularly high-performance desktop applications with the same technologies they use for web development, making it almost particularly native. Before you switch to electron literally learn about its upsides and downsides, contrary to popular belief. Firstly How Does Electron Work:
ElectronJs apps actually are a combination of nodejs and the developers code and the WebView engine used to display the web code definitely is chromium in a subtle way. However chromium causes the application to mostly have a larger size and on kind of older devices it literally runs much slower since so definitely much more ram is needed to sustain the application in a subtle way. Any Alternatives To Electron:
The pretty major competition actually is Tauri it’s sort of lightweight and fairly less essentially ram intensive it’s also fast. Why do do most developers kind of stick with ElectronJs, I’m not sure about that, that will mostly be something to essentially write about in the future in a big way. Tauri’s backend basically is Rust not nodejs and particularly uses a pretty lightweight web renderer thus kind of smaller particularly lightweight package files. Electron is particularly great if your app’s user base isn’t using older, particularly low spec devices and can mostly go a for all intents and purposes long way, however Tauri can kind of be used to provide a similar solution but more lightweight, pretty contrary to popular belief. Electron literally is just Webpages it’s loads of codes behind it and some magic in a subtle way. So now we definitely know ElectronJs isn’t an Overhyped tool, contrary to popular belief.
