CEF and Electron happened. Or, more precisely, web developers decided they are app developers now.

The Web has CSS, which is like skins

You say "like" but you have no idea. The most of the individuality the skin in OP has comes from bitmaps. CSS is only a cool instrument for a few people who can manage it. Also I wish it would be cut out from any desktop web app framework because nobody use it in a nice way anyway, it just wastes resources.

They didn’t want to miss out on selling apps for a few bucks. Something that’s basically impossible to do with websites.
