What makes people hate electron ?
Main advantage is that 400MB apps become more like 10MB. RAM and CPU usage are somewhat improved (webview is usually at least a bit more efficient than chromium), and startup times are a lot faster. Some of this is achieved by using compiled code to do heavy lifting, rather than electron’s JS-based versions. Full comparison here.

The state of gui libraries in rust?
If you only need to support Windows desktop, then let me shill my crate: native-windows-gui. It's super lightweight and it wraps pretty much all the gui stuff provided by win32. Just note that isn't really customizable look-wise.
