How you do this? Probably some of us could guess, but maybe will help people that only know electron :)

Is this the one that uses OpenGL or something to render everything (ie nonnative text controls etc)?
Re:Electron 2.0.0 beta by amedvednikov on Thursday February 22, 2018 @12:47PM (#16439514)
Not any more. Now it uses native controls.

Is it 90kb installer or complete app? Also what are using to build the interface?
Re:Electron 2.0.0 beta by amedvednikov on Thursday February 22, 2018 @09:37AM (#16437781)
It's the complete app. Cocoa on macos, WinAPI on Windows, GTK on Linux.

Nice joke. Repository is empty. Source archives are empty. Binary release for Linux: 404.

the dev is using github as a bug tracker, not as a place to host code. if thats’s a problem for you feel free not to download it
Re:Electron 2.0.0 beta by v_lisivka on Friday February 23, 2018 @05:03PM (#16450018)
The dev released source archive for Linux to compile code by yourself. Empty source archive.

This is not true. Nothing has been released for Linux yet.
