It’s not as bad these days with SSDs

Actually it is, SSD does help a little bit with swapping for disk I/O if RAM gets full but in general keeping the app in RAM is much much faster than even SSD. Electron absolutely chews up RAM like crazy compared to just about every c++ based GUI I've ever used. I just thought I'd let you know that.
Yes, and stuff like pyside2 are pretty cool too (for people who don't like C++)
