Go with one of the ready to use systems. Flatpak, Snap, AppImage. Snap is largely Ubuntu Ecosystem, Flatpak is independent. AppImage is an option if you do not need/want a Sandbox.
Stay away from Docker and LXC for this use case (graphical applications), they are much more work to get going.

You can just use podman+distrobox
Simple and rootless
Yes, Docker apps are more appropriate for servers and most apps are “made” to run 24/7 to serv the home or workplace.
They are very much worth the “work to setup” as they can be transfered/replicated to any system.
Flatpak and the alike are for running apps on a desktop/laptop.
Agreed. My answer was in the assumption that it’s about desktop apps as the OP mentioned Electron.
