This is the second time that 1Password Co has done something that I consider a negative...
The first one being them "hiding" the standalone version purchase link.
Doesn't give me much faith in their future plans which seen to be all about change for changes sake and extracting as much money out of customers as possible.
That being said BitWarden uses Electron and Angular for their desktop apps as well.
Hiding the standalone version purchase link helps them justify the move to a subscription-only service:
> The overwhelming majority of people (97% in fact) choose to subscribe to our new service and many of those who initially purchased a license later changed their mind and traded it in for a membership.
I, for one could not find the standalone.
Now I feel like I've been had, and have a bad taste in my mouth. I'm moving to something else. Currently trying out Secrets for MacOS, it will be hard to work with my one PC as it's not crossplatform, but I think I can deal with that.

Which is quite dishonest IMO.
