Does Bitwarden's desktop application use Electron?
Edit:
Okay, it sounds like from the comments, it does use Electron. Then my followup question is, if people are upset with 1Password moving in this direction, then Bitwarden would not be a good alternative, no?
- mcyukon 5y agoYes, from their Github page "The Bitwarden desktop app is written using Electron and Angular. The application installs on Windows, macOS, and Linux distributions."
- bussierem 5y agoIt does, but I have yet to need it. I use the browser plugin for everything. If a desktop app needs a password, I just open the FF plugin and copy the password myself haha.
- kalleboo 5y agoIt is, but on the Mac, one of the big selling points of 1Password was a nice, native UI. If that feature is gone, why use it over an open-source, self-hostable alternative?
- pseudalopex 5y agoPeople attached to the nice native UI are looking for another nice native UI.
- jakebasile 5y agoI was paying extra ($36/y vs $10/y) for the native app 1Password provided. Why would I keep paying more now that AgileBits decided not to offer the feature I wanted?
