There still seems to be a big problem that Electron is addressing that these React Native solutions aren't bothered with: it seems that users need to have Windows 10 whereas if you look at the OS market share, Win 7 still has the most usage at almost 50%

I would love to use React but if this is not addressed, there's no way I'm ignoring 1/2 users in the Windows ecosystem.

Is that the case or am I wrong? Can you run these React Native forks on Windows 7?

EDIT: Win 7 usage might be higher than is widely reported
