Native tools that don't rely on node and electron. If javascript on the desktop is going to be an eventuality then pygtk would be a much better direction.

If browsers offered an "open in a chromeless window" mode that could be called by other apps, then Electron apps wouldn't need to bundle the own browser.
We could then have downloadable apps with sizes of a few MB instead of the >100 MB monstrosities it generates now.
