Regardless of your opinion of it, it's not "dead technology" like Chrome apps are, i.e. apps written using it are not guaranteed to stop working at some point.

I wouldn't be so sure. Electron (libchromiumcontent) is a patchset on top of Chromium and it can be easily broken by upstream changes.

But its deprecation hasn't been planned, and a binary you provide won't suddenly be upgraded and stop working. That is not the case for Chromium apps.

Yeah, I'm actually more worried about Electron devs manpower/ability to catch regressions on the very big and simultaneously fast moving codebase where the upstream project doesn't really care about their use cases. This must be total PITA. Otherwise it's an ok platform, I guess.
