I have just got updates from upstream developers. A new version of
pencil has been released [1]. I uses Electron, instead of XULrunner.

I am planning to update the package to keep pencil on the next Fedora
releases. However, as I have checked on the wiki, Electron package [2]
has not been officially put into Fedora repo.
What should I do now? Any suggestions?

You can ask Brenton to submit the electron package for review and maintain
it in Fedora or you can do it yourself.

I'm guessing you haven't seen the dependency tree for electron if you think it's that easy ;-)

To be honest I'm struggling to even make sense of what exactly constitutes "electron" as such because the npm module of that name appears to basically be an installer for a prebuilt node and chrome!

I believe that behind that there are then a zillion other electron-* npm modules no doubt each with their own crazy dependency hell.
