I don't recommand learning electron because, from my experience, electron apps are more inacessible than not, so I think that it's wisest to stick to cross platform development with xanarin.

I would disagree. Skype 8 is Electron.  Visual studio Code is Electron. Electron is chromium
lots of apps use chromium nowadays.

Yeah ...no ...that is not true.
I would hesitate to even compare Xamarin and Electron, their target groups seem to be rather different to me, but hey who am I.
Now as for learning Electron apps, you will need familiarity with HTML and JavaScript to start with. Once you have that, you can gooogle any old electron tutorial and see how to make it?
