I should mention that I have used Electron and found it visually great but otherwise bulky and slow. There is plenty of room to improve in this space.

I'm optimistic we'll see WebRender (Firefox's new rendering engine written in Rust) baked into a WASM-capable desktop app framework in the near future. One such project is Azul, which I'm not involved in but am watching with interest. Hopefully we'll see others as well.
