Isn’t the “Electron bloat” just that a version of Chrome has to be bundled in, and shouldn’t that only be like 25 MB?

- perardi 6y agoWell let’s explore the app package. Electron Framework takes up 174 MB. Past that, the big one is “disk” in Contents/Resources/app/src/ — which I will be completely honest, I don’t know what that is exactly. Is it a disk image? If so, does it have to be set to a reasonably large size at build time so you don’t run out of space in the emulator?
- perardi 6y agoAh, yeah, I think I assumed correctly. In the emulator, the “macintosh.js” hard drive is 650 MB, so you must have to explicitly give it a big giant size to begin with, as it can’t dynamically increase the volume size on the fly.
