Which platform supported by Electron does not have existing color picker applications?

Been using GColor2 forever on Linux. And I believe there are others.

Don't really see how this improves it. I use Mac OS as well but I don't miss the color picker from Mac OS when I'm using Linux, not sure what his problem is. Or the attitude in general, I wouldn't want to be running something showing at all times such a cute name on screen. No thanks.

One of the advantages of Electron is that apps can be written in JavaScript and other web technologies, making it accessible to many more developers.

You can use QML and QtQuick and use Javascript plus a markup langauge.
