Sounds like they just rewrote the whole thing from scratch, down to replacing Electron.

They replaced Electron, but without getting rid of the actual problems. It's still basically a React website wrapped in a web browser.

  It’s a skill issue. This is what you get when your developer team has only ever known programming through the lens of terrible tools and practices. They’ve probably never worked on good software before.

> from scratch they replaced electron with a MS Edge Web View which is still running V8. I wouldn't say they rewrote it "from scratch"—that would be more like rewriting it in C#

  They also transitioned from Angular to React, which is not a natural transition, so it probably was nearly a rewrite
