Electron.js: Run Electron apps in any browser.

~~No external dependencies~~ Builds a statically linked Chrome, so just `npm install` and you're good to go

There's a lesson there - making software easier to build and install goes a long way. Go has that advantage too.

If nodes taught me anything it's that we need more elitism. Letting front end coders build stuff in the only language they know has proven to be a terrible idea.
