Good luck with that. There is no good alternative to Electron yet.

There isn’t a good flash alternative either, but that’s gone too.

As long as bad alternatives keep getting accepted good alternatives won't get enough traction.

If corporates started banning Electron (i.e. Teams#, Slack 'thick' installs) there would be motivation to come up with something better.

# Wormable interactionless RCE via Teams (Electron) a few months ago and they refused to acknowledge it.
