Is this built on top of electron?
edit: oh, it's a private company and it's mac only. Something about proprietary extensions to my command line is a huge turn off. Functionality itself looks great though.
- yjftsjthsd-h 5y agoIn fairness, "not electron" and "only one OS yet" are probably somewhat connected.
- sofixa 5y agoYeah, and I find it peculiar people rant about both about the same time. Making cross-platform stuff takes time, so it makes sense that Fig ( and many others) focus on a single platform only initially, if they haven't chosen a cross-platform stack. Which sucks as a user, which is why I prefer Electron apps to X-only apps.
- snovv_crash 5y agoQt works great for cross platform and isn't so heavy. It still blows my mind that it's ok for a chat app to take half a gig of ram.
- colordrops 5y agoHow would electron ever be suitable for a command line tool, cross platform or not?
