Features
- Web Technologies Electron uses Chromium and Node.js so you can build your app with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
- Open Source - Electron is an open source project maintained by GitHub and an active community of contributors.
- Cross Platform - Compatible with Mac, Windows, and Linux, Electron apps build and run on three platforms.

As a user: The trouble with Electron based apps is that you end up with wasted GB of duplicate frameworks, if you use many such apps. I've tried symlinking them to have only one copy of Electron somewhere but it doesn't work. It would be nice to have an option to install it system wide, like Java.
