A comment on Electron 4.0.0. Parent comment
In JS you can just access the fields. With a lot of APIs just being HTTP endpoints, call fetch, get JSON, see if you like how it works.
Move over to a better NPM library that wraps it later on if so desired.
But for prototyping stuff, JSON+JS is stupid fast. JSON store DBs suck for a lot of reasons, but getting something working in them is incredibly easy.
Getting that something to "real product" is probably end to end more work than if a better tech stack was chosen. You win some and you lose some!
