About This App

Electron is a framework that enables developers to build cross-platform desktop applications for macOS, Windows, and Linux using web technologies (HTML, JavaScript, and CSS) combined with Node.js. It powers thousands of popular applications including Visual Studio Code, Discord, Slack, and many others. Developers use Electron to write desktop apps once and deploy them across multiple operating systems without maintaining separate codebases. The framework embeds Chromium and Node.js, making it ideal for teams wanting to leverage web development skills for native-feeling desktop applications.

Good news: Electron now has full native Apple Silicon support. A Universal Binary version (v36.3.2) has been confirmed running on real Macs in the Rosetta Check community. You should update to the latest available version immediately—Electron 41.5.0 is currently available in Homebrew and includes native arm64 support. The framework has been actively maintained with native Apple Silicon builds available since early support announcements. Simply download the latest version from the official Electron releases page or via Homebrew, and your Electron apps and development environment will run natively on Apple Silicon Macs without Rosetta 2.
