Electron.js Development

Electron.js — desktop apps built with web technology

Electron combines Chromium and Node.js into a single runtime, letting you build native desktop applications for Windows, macOS, and Linux using the same HTML, CSS, and JavaScript your web team already writes. Slack, VS Code, Figma (desktop), Discord, and Notion are all built on Electron. It is a proven production platform for complex, high-stakes desktop software.

What we build

• Cross-platform desktop apps — single codebase, Windows + macOS + Linux
• Electron + React or Angular frontend — full UI component library
• Electron + Node.js backend — local file system, native OS APIs, IPC
• Auto-updater integration — Squirrel-based or custom update channels
• Native OS integration — system tray, notifications, file associations
• Electron security hardening — context isolation, CSP, sandboxing
• Electron performance — memory profiling, renderer process optimisation
• Packaging and code signing — Windows MSI, macOS DMG, Linux AppImage

When Electron is the right choice

Electron makes sense when your application needs local file system access, offline capability, native OS integration, or a packaged installer that your users can download and run without a browser. If your app works equally well as a web app, a PWA is usually a simpler solution — we will give you an honest comparison before you commit to Electron.
