Electron is based on Chromium and Node.js and can be used to build applications using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. It is compatible with Mac, Windows, and Linux, enabling the creation of applications for all three platforms.

From a user perspective, a client is a standalone software application that typically provides a better overall experience than a website, especially for applications related to "tools." Additionally, specific user groups may have similar usage habits.

From a publisher's perspective, a client is another form of product that serves as a distribution method and entry point. Clients can provide many features unique to local applications and deliver more reliable services.

In terms of development costs, using popular Web technologies for development and being able to use modules from the large NodeJS ecosystem within Electron reduces the time and effort spent on development and is cost-effective compared to native development.
