I have aarch64 and 4GB of memory. Electron apps are not kind to either.

Netbeans nightly and JDK9 is quite nice on this platform.
- acdha 9y agoSo will a well-written Electron app like VSCode. It's not like Java hasn't had the exact same challenges leveled for decades because people wrote bad code without thinking about resource usage.
- chapill 9y agoI don't see an aarch64 or arm linux distribution for VSCode. https://code.visualstudio.com/Download https://code.visualstudio.com/Download Java works now. VS Code doesn't. Neither does Atom. Or any other Electron app. ARM is a pretty popular arch these days. They might want to work on that.
- acdha 9y agoThis thread started with a complaint about building things in a language which wasn't JavaScript. Getting better ARM support is a reasonable thing – and they have open work on GitHub to save you the trouble of building it yourself – but it doesn't have much to do with the language.
