- Jonnax 8y agoWell sure. But every piece of software doesn't need to cater for low power computers.

- jve 8y agoProbably valid points about RAM. But in the end, productivity is all that matters, after all. If electron app will be slow, you won't be productive and will probably not use the software. I cannot see being productive in Notepad++ as I am with Code. I cannot say that VS Code is slow. Yes, for quick viewing random files, I prefer to open in Notepad++ which is already opened and opens new files instantly. VS Code I prefer for projects, but sometimes ad-hoc files too.
