Java eats about a quarter-gig of disk space on my windows installation. That's a bit less than the base electron bundle. That is one installation for the computer, but that's due to dumb packaging (you _could_ just tell everyone to install chrome, just like you used to tell everyone to install java; we've forsaken that space for convenience.) The ui of java then was significantly more bounded in flexibility. So we've forsaken space savings of old java for subjectively-prettier ui.
> Best case scenario of the continuing "evolution" of electron is the elimination of the OS entirely. Why do you need it? Just put drivers in Chrome and be done with it.
Have you used a chromebook?
