The last Electron app I've used (one of these new chat apps, forgot the name) was dog slow (on my $700 computer from 2018), and gave my computer a hang up (probably triggered a graphics driver issue, or sth related with too much memory consumption).
- Const-me 8y agoI don’t like Electron too much, and I don’t program Electron apps (I mostly code C++ and C#), but I saw good products built on Electron. For example, visual studio code is fine. It’s the same story with all high-level tools. They’re easier to use and have lower barrier to entry, used by less skilled programmers who fail to deliver good products. For example, Unity3D has very low barrier and there’re many low-quality games built with that. But if developers know what they’re doing it is possible to build great games, e.g. cities skyline.
