Question on the best method to supply a GUI to a NodeJS program I'm making with a friend.

Hello,So I'm making Discord-Facebook bridge app with NodeJS as a project to get us back into coding. They'll be options we want the user to be able to alter and we want it as user friendly as possible so we want a GUI.The first thaught was to just do it in electron, but after researching it I want to stay away from electron due to it's heavy load for what we're trying to do. I really REALLY wish electron wasn't like that, but I want to make software that's more efficient than the hog that electron is known for being.We want the interface too look nice too, somthing with this kind of style is what I'm thinking. https://ift.tt/2rjubWY other thaught is that we can have a website hosted locally on whatever computer the program is running on, and they can access options through that, but I'm unsure of if that's a good idea or not.I'm currently looking into QtPy and other GUI things but am a bit overwhelmed with many people saying lots of bad things about lots of various frameworks. I'm really not sure what direction to go.
