Microsoft wants devs to build Electron AI apps on Windows 11, says no need of native code, despite RAM concerns (www.windowslatest.com)

Electron apps are ruining the Windows 11 experience, and even the JavaScript creator has warned against ‘rushed web UX over native,’ but it doesn’t look like that will change Microsoft’s plans. In a post on X and other places, Microsoft reaffirmed its commitment to AI in Windows 11 and encouraged Electron developers to consider using AI in their apps.

UWP ≠ Electron. UWP is a new environment inside of Windows with new APIs, but AFAIK is still native or at least much closer to it than electron.

My point was exactly that; if Electron apps are encouraged by Microslop they're at least partially giving up on their push for UWP apps
