    It’s still terrible because of its ram usage, electron uses minimum 300Mb per instance so that’s 3GB for 10 apps while if you open them all in Chrome you save 100s of mb

      Chrome won’t give Web apps access to the file system amongst other things. I’m a firm proponent of web apps - but they can’t do everything a desktop app can, and so electron offers an alternative with the trade offs I mentioned.
