Yes, indeed I meant not typescript, not js but something to do a real desktop app.

I'm not specially fan of Rust, but here what annoys me is to have to use an electron based app...



I'm not against a complete rewrite at some point in the future, to be not reliant on electronjs anymore.

But to be honest, that is not something I want to tackle alone. I need (code-)contributors for that. Basically someone who is well versed in MacOS native development and someone who is willing to take on native Windows stuff. I can take on the Linux part, but that's the minimum I would expect for it to work.

Next thing is getting signing certificates for MacOS and Windows.

MacOS costs USD99/y and Windows USD 350+/y or with the beta program USD 120/y

Which I'm willing to take on, if Bananas hits a nerve and people start really using it.
