This might sound strange but when I had to do something similar I required in the server part of the application and just had Electron open a window to it once I got a callback that everything was running.

I tell them to explain and elaborate. I then explain my logic and if my logic is faulty do as my users ask. I only run into issues when its code I dont own.

Frameworks and libraries that ignore the power and use case of the language they are written in. Constant badgering about "the wonders of Smalltalk" I find bothersome.

I dont, I use configuration files.
