On Linux, VS Code can't even resize without glitching and showing unrendered portions of the window like it's 1999. Nor can it kinetic scroll. Those are two expected highlights of quality GPU-backed software.
Hopefully running in an actual browser would make this better simply because you can choose a browser that isn't Electron.
- spankalee 4y agoafaict, VS Code doesn't employ most of these modern techniques for faster layout and rendering. Last I checked they didn't have CSS containment or shadow roots anywhere, and they have very, very large DOM trees. They're the classic example of jumping from unoptimized HTML/CSS to GPU to try to fix performance as they moved the terminal to be GPU-based, and it doesn't seemed to have helped because that introduced rendering bugs that would have been impossible with HTML. I only use VS Code as an example of how many places you app can be used if it's web-based.
