You can run the polkadot.js/apps UI natively as an electron client. That's available from the releases page: https://github.com/polkadot-js/apps/releases For added security+confidence, you could connect this to a locally-run node instead of parity (or whoever)'s publicly run RPC nodes. If you want a cold wallet (i.e., offline, used for signing transactions, etc) you can use parity-signer
