Thanks for your feedback. We seen lot of startup leveraging chromium desktop apps, which reduces additional work/bug for supporting multiple browsers. Additionally some users prefer desktop apps over webapp which is a click away. For example we have over 3000+ apps created for asana alone with our free tool [https://appmaker.xyz/web2desk/].
We're not charging for the service we are providing not for electron. Here is the free version we are providing without installer and updates [https://appmaker.xyz/web2desk/].
