I was recently assigned to a project that needed to create a desktop application when I stumbled upon Electron. Coming from web projects that heavily relied on Javascript, I decided to try it out and was pleasantly surprised. Not only was it friendly to beginners (in native/desktop app development) like me, it was fun and enjoyable to code too. I personally think that this framework lowers the barrier to entry for making desktop apps using Javascript which will translate to making development time much faster. Translating this to Filipino would lower that barrier even more.

Electron is an open source library developed by GitHub for building cross-platform desktop applications with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Electron accomplishes this by combining Chromium and Node.js into a single runtime and apps can be packaged for Mac, Windows, and Linux.
Electron began in 2013 as the framework on which Atom, GitHub's hackable text editor, would be built. The two were open sourced in the Spring of 2014.
It has since become a popular tool used by open source developers, startups, and established companies. See who is building on Electron.
