well if you've ever built a cross platform native desktop application, you will appreciate Electron.
Java Swing. Never again.
edit: Do people downvoting even know what it's like building cross platform desktop applications using Java Swing? It's fucking awful, and that's a fact. Even the end result UI design look & feel is butt ugly. Sure you can spice things up with JavaFX but why? Do you not realize how masochistic it was back then vs now with thin web browser clients? Can't believe people are still thumping Java Swing in 2017.
