Electron is a framework that is available for building applications, cross-platform. You’re creating a web-application that can be used as a desktop one (implementing both back- and frontend). Backend - node.js, and frontend - Chrome. So, a lot of artifacts can be shared with Chrome and buddies. It’s in wide use. For example, ⚠️ WhatsApp and Skype use it.
