If you want a "snappy editor", don't use one written as a web app.

- jxub 8y agoI don't think that the issue lies there. Look at the likes of Eclipse, not using Electron and way slower, while offering a marginal increase in functionality compared to a customized VS Code with plugins. Also, would you spend 5 hours each day in front of a Winforms or Awt based usually ugly-ass editor? The only negative side of going with Electron in the VS Code case is the size increment that comes from bundling the chrome engine.
