  1. better-sqlite3

    The fastest and simplest library for SQLite3 in Node.js.

    Yes it's possible. I've used, for example, the better-sqlite3 library, which is written in C++, in an Electron app. React in the Renderer process would call Main process over IPC, then Main would use the Node bindings to whatever native Node module you're using.

  3. node-sass

    Discontinued :rainbow: Node.js bindings to libsass

    node-sass provides Node bindings to the Libsass C library.

  4. Prisma

    Next-generation ORM for Node.js & TypeScript | PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, SQL Server, SQLite, MongoDB and CockroachDB

    prisma calls out to binaries compiled by Rust.

  5. sciter

    Sciter: the Embeddable HTML/CSS/JS engine for modern UI development

    I'd suggest Sciter that was specifically designed to be integrated with native code.
