I built an Electron app Video Hub App and it's fast:

Electron is overkill for a todo app that you want users to open/close many times per day. But if it's an app that's used for 90% while it's open and is used a few times per week, who cares if it takes 2 seconds to start?

I don't understand what everyone is moaning about with Electron. My app uses 130mb of RAM -- is that too much to ask for, for a dedicated video browser?

ps - here's also a file renamer I built with Electron: https://github.com/whyboris/Simplest-File-Renamer
