Hi Joao, Awesome job, I tried windows build & it is running very smooth on my Win10 VM,
It took some time when I ran it for the first time (I think because it ran "update.exe") but it was quick when opened second time onwards (taking ~6-7 secs to display the main window). The main thing I noticed is that it's not resource-hungry like other electron apps I have used earlier, - Resouce consumption with Dashboard CPU: ~20% RAM: ~300mb - Resouce consumption without Dashboard CPU: ~5% RAM: ~300mb Which is much lighter than I expected :) I'll also try it on my physical machine running Win7 and update the thread if I find any issue.
