Ewww! So people like Electron so much that they redid essentially the same 
thing (duct-taping together Chromium and Node.js, taking advantage of the 
fact that both use the same JavaScript engine, V8) from scratch? How does 
this differ from Electron?

Electron has never made it into Fedora so far. I suspect that NW.js might 
not be any easier to package. It depends on whether the build system is any 
saner or whether they also heavily rely on downloading prebuilt blobs 
(making it a real pain to build everything from source and without build-
time network access as required in Fedora) as Electron does.
