- lalopalota 4y ago> Performant means that something is working correctly or well enough to be considered functional. In a technology context, this term is believed to have originated with programmers seeking a concise word to express that a system or program will work, but may not yet be optimal. https://www.techopedia.com/definition/28231/performant https://www.techopedia.com/definition/28231/performant
- jdale27 4y agoThat's interesting. While that seems to be consistent with other definitions online, in my experience most software developers use the word as a synonym for "fast" or "efficient".
