The problem is not JS per se, it's sloppy client code on a very permissive runtime. Otherwise it wouldn't have creeped into app with electron.

- pjmlp 2y agoWhich is a reflection of those writing the sloppy client code in first place. Back in the 8 and 16 bit days, companies managed to make software available across all of them, or at least the most common platforms, in a time where performance called for hand written Assembly, and each hardware platform was its own snowflake. And yet in the age of high level programming languages, the best most folks can think of is shipping a browser alongside the application, not only they show complete disregard for the platform, they don't really care about the Web, rather ChromeOS. And yes this includes VSCode, which has tons of C++ and Rust code, and partial use of WebGL rendering, to work around the exact point of being based on Electron.
