Why we included this project
Cross-platform desktop apps often get the same critique: they feel like websites, not native software. This skill turns the architectural decisions behind Raycast's 2.0 redesign into reference documents and checklists that an AI coding agent can pull up on demand. It covers eight structural tenets, a four-layer native-shell/WebView/Node/Rust architecture, a WebKit and WebView2 survival guide, and a 75-item ship-readiness audit that flags the usual tells like cursor:pointer rows, web-style modals, and hardcoded accent colors. If you're refactoring an existing app to feel more native or starting a cross-platform project and want your agent to avoid the standard web-app mistakes, this gives it a grounded playbook to work from.
