Can I convert an existing Node JS express app to electron? Kindly assist

Any thoughts on receiving asynchronous data via the serial port? For example for it to be fast enough not to miss any incoming data (megabits of data transferred at 115200bps), I assume there must be a background task that is responsible for getting each (ascii or binary) character, and then your main thread polls/processes the background task for the data in order for the GUI to remain responsive?

Also, when you build the application for distribution, does the resulting .exe contain all the run-time (server-side?) files needed, or is it like the .net framework where the install computer has to have something pre-installed?

Hey I need some guidance on my next project.
I am planning to make a desktop app using electron to manage inventory & track orders so I need this desktop app to have a local database but I don't want other people to install any kind of external database software it should be like packaged within the app itself, and also this desktop app should be connected with some kind of online database (more on this later). And I also have made an android app to manage the end customer and provide them with regular updates and also collect data from them. Till now I have been using Google sheets and a web app to manage everything but this has recently become really problematic (many many issues) So I need to deploy my own database (local server or online server basically anywhere possible) and this has to be connected with my the electron app and the android app
.
.
So basically 3 things
=> a desktop app with a embedded database & also linked to a online database
=> A android app which is connected to the online database
=> and the database itself Which manages all the data from the android app user and the desktop app user
.
.
I have created the android app & also making the electron app seems doable BUT the embedded database & server database part seems really confusing and I have no clue what to do or where to start (the reason I picked electron for the desktop app is because I am really familiar with Javascript, HTML & CSS)
.
So I need some guidance (maybe alot) to make this happen
