>Lack of storage? No. Why no? Not every machine is your 32GB RAM machine… If it has to run on a slower machine… say a raspberry pi with a slow flash drive and a slow external drive accessed over USB… being much smaller means speed. > Lack of computing power or RAM? No. Why no? Yes. We have had multitasking operating systems for a while now. Electron apps are tolerable because they are few. If every single application was done with electron, it'd be worse than windows95 on a 486. They still sell lots of computers with 8GB of RAM, although I'm sure your one has at least 2x, probably 4x as much. > Then? Then, with incorrect assumptions you can reach any result that you desire, but it is meaningless.

No need for 32GB of RAM It'd be hard to find some hardware today that runs Qt and not a web browser that's significantly cheaper (and will just make your development costs higher) Electron is an issue but nobody is using that for embedded > Then, with incorrect assumptions you can reach any result that you desire, but it is meaningless.

  > Electron is an issue but nobody is using that for embedded Qt works fine on embedded. Quite popular there. > This runs a web browser no problem. No need for 32GB of RAM Yes, 1 web browser with a minimal no js page. But 10 at the same time? 20? Animated stuff in it?
