I found this dimension of the analysis:

> People prefer native apps to web apps

> Java has “UI curse”: Looked bad

to be at odds with this aspect of the design:

> No goal to look native

> Leverage Skia

I suppose it’s just to clarify that those choices are deliberate, with the trade-offs in mind.

The README also suggests that the reason why people prefer native apps isn’t just the UI’s aesthetics, but:

> Normal shortcuts, icon, its own window, file system access, notifications, OS integrations
