Hi This is probably the wrong place to discuss that (OT).

There is a relatively new Bitcoin Core Github issue that covers that topic [1]. AFAIK many Bitcoin Core contributors (and users?) don’t like the idea of having a Browser and JavaScript to achieve a UI with relatively simple user-stories. I think if you want to do this, try to work on a third party project and let your Electron UI connect to Bitcoin Core over RPC. To avoid pulling, eventually use ZMQ or help getting long polling into Bitcoin Core [2]. Adding a Electron/JavaScript UI to the Bitcoin Core repository is very unlikely to happen.
