I know electron well.
And I'm web developer, so i want my website that i make to the client, to be the full stack website that will be used, including website UI, API, and the App for his resturant/shop, can an electron app be good enough to run on low-end devices?

with like corei3 4GB ram

but the important point

#

is electron good for these devices?

median current

on these devices?

#

#

the point of the question, must i learn gui for other lang, or still use electron for my websites and management systems

#

And also why my electron app, even after compiling to exe file, it takes some time to open the GUI

#

is that normal?

#

knowing that the application is really small

#

while some app that is bigger, like postman, vscode, built on electron, does not take time to open
