I've found every Electron app I've used to be terrible. This includes VSCode. In fact compare VSCode to Adobe Brackets - both of which are using web technologies as their framework but Brackets is a node.js application while VSCode is Electron, and you'll see just how badly Electron performs when even compared to similar technologies.
- hex13 9y agoI used Brackets maybe 2 years ago and it was very slow back then. Maybe now they have optimized it, I don't know.
- laumars 9y agoOh it's definitely slow compared to the likes of Sublime Text or vim. But compared to Atom, VSCode, etc Brackets feels a lot snappier and less memory hungry. This is what I've experienced on 4 different hardware platforms however all running ArchLinux so YMMV.
