Electron (software framework)
Electron is a software framework that allows developers to create desktop applications using web technologies like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. It combines the power of the Chromium browser engine and Node.js, enabling apps to run on Windows, macOS, and Linux without needing separate codebases for each platform. Electron simplifies the development process by letting programmers build cross-platform desktop apps with familiar tools and languages, making it easier to deliver consistent, feature-rich software across different operating systems. Popular apps like Visual Studio Code and Slack are built using Electron.
