    Good choice.

    If you want to stick to HTML...WebView2 is suppose to replace it, but it assumes your backend code is .NET or C++, instead of JS/Node.js. Microsoft Teams is using it.

    If you want to use native Windows UI components from JS code, then React Native for Windows is recommended. Facebook Messenger is using it.

    All approaches require C# or C++ modules to be used to interact with the Windows Platform. Or there is: https://github.com/tjanczuk/edge.

    The recommended approach is WinUI 3 which would involve C#/C++ and XAML.

    To SwiftUI/React/JetPack are called module-view-update (MVU). There is an MVU for C# called Comet. https://github.com/dotnet/Comet#key-concepts

    I've been looking at edge to use with /r/node, or maybe Blazor but I am not sure it is the best approach.
