概要

Electron is a framework for building desktop apps using web technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript). Apps run on Windows, macOS, Linux from single codebase. Slack, Discord, VS Code, Figma use Electron. Learning takes 2-4 weeks for web developers; mastery (performance, native modules, distribution) takes 2-3 months. Specialists earn $110-160K+ because web developers building desktop = new skill, high value. Every SaaS company shipping desktop app needs Electron expert.

Electron Appsとは

Electron is a framework combining Chromium (browser rendering engine) and Node.js (JavaScript runtime) to build desktop applications. Developers write HTML/CSS/JavaScript, Electron packages it as a desktop app for Windows, macOS, Linux. Electron makes web developers productive at building desktop apps. Slack (desktop), Discord (desktop), VS Code are Electron apps. Each is web app code inside an Electron shell.

❓ よくある質問

▶Why Electron instead of native apps?
Electron = write once, run everywhere. One codebase for Windows/Mac/Linux. Native = best performance, native look/feel, but write 3x. Trade: Electron = 100MB app size, but 10x faster development. For most apps, trade is worth it.
▶Is Electron slow?
It's bundling Chromium (500MB) + Node.js + your app. Yes, slower than native. But for most use cases (text editor, chat, IDE) = imperceptibly slow. Only heavy workloads (game, video editing) feel it.
▶How do I call native C++ from Electron?
Write C++ module using Node.js Native Addon API. Compile for all platforms. Call from JavaScript via require(). Used for: performance-critical code, hardware access, legacy code.
▶How do I distribute Electron apps?
Package with electron-builder (creates .exe, .dmg, .AppImage). Sign for security. Users run installer. Auto-updates handled by electron-updater. Standard flow.
▶Can I update Electron app after release?
Yes. electron-updater checks for new version, downloads, restarts app. Seamless to user. Recommended: auto-update every time app starts.
