From the perspective of UX of a power user, you’d need to convince me that all of these Electron apps is “progress”.

Also not, Electron apps are Windows HTA revisited, not willing to do the right stuff.

And yes even Microsoft does it, but what to expect when younger teams have the cool ideas to rewrite VS installer with node or use it to drive VS plugins.

Still not every graphical application is Electron based, whereas in what concerns the UNIX terminal hardly anything has changed in 50 years.
