Too bad it's GTK, which is an atrocious toolkit. Why didn't you write yours in Qt?

See, there's always more to complain about. I don't think your comment is productive here. Electron is not a perfect choice but what exactly does your comment add to the discussion about "just for fun" projects?

The OP is not singing the praises of Electron, in which case criticism about it would be welcome. They're trying to show off something they built. If a kid shows you a drawing they're proud of, do you criticize the drawing for not having a good color palette? (Rhetorical: It's not appropriate to do so, unless they're specifically asking for that kind of feedback)
