Chrome is pretty resource heavy and Teams might not need all of that. Eg It might not need the latest web APIs or even v8 at all. While it seems counterintuitive, I have read quite a few success stories of people moving from Electron to Qt Webviews. Obviously fully native would be preferable from a user experience but at least with a webview you can start to build hot paths in C++/Rust/etc more easily than one might be able to with Electron. So this might not solve all of Teams desktop application problems it’s still a step in the right direction.
