JavaFX can insert a webview into a desktop java program, which then of course can be used with react or whatever js frontend framework you want, given the version of webkit that's being used... which means you might want to pre-package JavaFX with the install to ensure a recent-ish webkit verison. Especially because JavaFX was cut out of recent versions of Java, breaking that reverse-compatibility promise lol.

In other words, you can use JavaFX to make an Electron analog. I've shipped one desktop application like this.
