I've been told "everything is awesome". Thus, nothing can be overrated.

Redux and everything built around that.

"Advanced" web development in general - roughly 75% of use cases can be done equally good with simpler solutions

Blockchain, AI and other buzzwords - everyone claims to be using those, in fact just few companies on the entire world are able to do something productive with those.

Working from a coffee shop like a lot of blogs and discussions suggest.

If it's scraping data to save in a JSON file or creating a UI, cool. Anything else that might even involve connecting to a db, nope nope nope.

That's a dev advantage, when I develope something I think in what gives value to the user, there is a lot of crossplatform SW around. If you want to keep the dev process simple, well do a webapp and give me the tools that a browser gives, you want to make a desk program then give me the performance, don't give me the worst of both worlds, instead of Electro you might be able to separate server an client and make it more flexible and use the browser control. Of course is just my priorities, I don't think that Electron shouldn't exist or their users are wrong, it's my view, I also think SCRUM is overrated and maybe has been useful to others. There is no such thing overrated in absolute terms. To me an Electron app is an unnecesary waste of my limited resources. So if an app uses it is a deal breaker.

Dark Theme for everything.
I feel like it depends on the amount of natural light you have and your own eye strains.

I live in Haiti and I've got a lot of natural light. It feels like the planet Riddick was on (The second movie). Dark is more easy for me.
