> you can now ship cross platform apps quickly, without electron.

The opposite is also true. My argument is that you can also ship Electron apps with more features more quickly with LLMs.

You still have a finite token budget. With native apps, you have to split those tokens across multiple platforms, whereas with Electron, you can reuse most of the code.

Big companies have been going back and forth between native and cross-platform approaches even before LLMs. They generally have the resources (humans, tokens, compute) that small and medium-sized companies don’t have. So I’d take their rationale with a grain of salt.
