## What it is
G Desktop Suite is an Electron-based desktop wrapper for Google Drive that provides a dedicated, no-frills desktop app experience for Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides. It supports macOS, Windows, and Linux with automatic OS dark mode integration.

## Use cases
- use google drive as a desktop app instead of a browser tab
- get a word-processor-like experience for google docs
- separate google drive from my browser tabs
- avoid clicking 'go to my drive' every time
- run google suite offline-style window with dark mode

## When to choose
- you want a dedicated desktop window for Google Drive on macOS, Windows, or Linux
- you prefer native-feeling dark mode support tied to your OS theme
- you want a simple Electron wrapper without extra bloat

## When to avoid
- you need an actively maintained app with recent bug fixes and security updates
- you require full offline Google Docs editing or advanced Drive sync features
- you need something other than a web wrapper around drive.google.com
