What are the alternatives to Electron?

Hello. I am a web developer. But now there is a desire to write a cross-platform program. Previously, I wrote applications using Electron and felt a little bit of Cordova.

The crux of the matter is: What are the alternatives to Electron? How do they work? How do they behave in terms of final performance? What are their pros and cons both globally and in comparison with Electron?

WIndows and MacOS are preferred, but any other platforms will be a plus

How do they behave in terms of final performance?

Fine. electron smokes on the sidelines.
What are their pros and cons both globally and in comparison with Electron?

In all pluses. The only thing is there is no js, ​​but this is a matter of taste.

With knowledge of java or C#, or php7, you can connect javascript or its specific implementations to programs in these languages. But it will be better and easier to learn java, C# + mono, python + gui libraries, and even php7.4 + gui looks more and more reasonable.
If you don't like electron.

I would recommend looking into Progressive Web Apps. They will work absolutely on any device and even without the Internet, if you correctly configure caching.
