Electron is absolutely unbeatable when it comes to being cross-platform. Because its core is the same as Chromium, every time Chromium, the biggest browser engine without question, is updated to run better, more stable on every platform, and big companies pump millions of dollars into it, Electron gets it "for free". Very hard to compete with that. Additionally, writing Electron applications has a relatively low entry point because it resembles writing web pages to some extent.
