Desktop Application Framework:

  • Electron: A framework that enables developers to build cross-platform desktop applications using web technologies. It combines JavaScript, HTML, and CSS and supports Windows, macOS, and Linux platforms.

Game Development Frameworks:

  • Phaser: A fast and lightweight HTML5 game framework that supports both desktop and mobile browsers. It provides an extensive set of features for developing 2D games.
