When I compare Electron with Delphi and VB, we have regressed by light years.

And for the pixel perfect complaints, it only shows lack of care to not have learnt how layout managers work.

This doesn't feel like a natural comparison to me. Electron isn't completely oriented around a visual RAD builder like either of those frameworks so it kind of sounds like apples and oranges.

		On the contrary, Electron is for Web developers that don't care enough to learn about native GUI coding. Managing it would be the right meaning for fullstack.

Oh yeah? However little you enjoy Electron as a philosophy, I'm not really sure you've ever had to maintain different codebases for different types of machines, let alone OSs.

Electron and you throw your website basically into anything and it works.

		My dear I am into computers since 1986, we had plenty more operating systems and hardware architectures to worry about when trying to write some form of portable code. Both ways up in snow and without boots.
