I just thought that people moved to Electron for cross-platform and to native otherwise. Java was not particularly fast nor native-looking on desktop. I’ve spent quite a few years in Swing, and am not sure it’s much better than Electron. But with GraalVM, maybe…
- itronitron 2y agoIt really depends on the developers writing the application, but in my humble opinion Java and Swing are far better than Electron in terms of responsiveness to user interactions.
- riku_iki 2y agoJava is unbeatable for "enterprise logic" though..
- compsciphd 2y agothe primary java app I use is InteliJ suite and it seems as responsive/fast as any other app I use. Are they doing anything particularly unique?
- riku_iki 2y agoIntelliJ is 20yo old app, with lots of resources invested, they likely have many non-trivial optimizations implemented and do not represent vanilla java experience.
