Create Cross-Platform Desktop Apps with Electron

Call me old-fashioned, but I have always preferred using a desktop app suited to each purpose. I feel that if all I’m going to use is a browser for everything I do, then why have a ‘proper’ computer? On a practical level, I travel frequently and am generally ‘between’ internet connectivity or using unstable internet connections, and ‘real’ applications are typically far better at allowing effective offline working.
