I've started playing with Electron after I heard it on the Dot Net Rocks podcast. It is interesting and I like it for cross platform apps (already have an application in mind) but I've come across some issues. Mainly using React with Electron. I copy examples verbatim and it just won't render properly. It is incredibly frustrating and makes me want to just do .NET Core instead. Another downside is that it seems to create very large executables when using electron-render, which may not be a big deal but they are much larger than apps I've seen in the Windows store.
