Easy to say, and probably true, but this is "armchair quarterbacking". Did you make a better one without Electron that I can use instead, or do I still have to use the Electron one?

Feels like GUI frameworks have gone downhill after Windows Forms. Probably coinciding with everyone wanting a completely custom fancy GUI.

It depends on what are you talking about.

If it is about a Postman/Insomnia/Bruno alternative, the answer is yes.

I use it everyday now, it is called APIKulture. It may not look as pretty, but it is insanely faster than Bruno.

And Postman/Insomnia now require login to their systems which I just refuse to do.

Not sure how APIKulture, a REST API testing GUI, is in any way an alternative for Electron, which is framework for building cross-platform GUI apps. Care to explain your thought process?

It's an alternative to an Electron app.

Ohh you want an Electron alternative, not just some software that's not written in Electron as an example that it is possible not to use Electron. Which was my goal, to show you an example.

In that case the toolkit I used is called wxWidgets. It has been my Electron alternative for two decades.

It is the effort of hundreds of people, so I find your comment of "just build one" as pretentious as it can be. No single person can do this. It's a collective effort.
