macbook pro m4 bought last year. worked on so many codes and projects. never hot after closing lid. installed electron claude. closed lid and went to sleep and woke up to macbook that has been hot all night. uninstall claude. problem went away.
i kept telling myself this BUT NEVER ELECTRON AGAIN.

- DauntingPear7 8mo agoIt’s not electron
- rvz 8mo agoYes it certainly is.
- woadwarrior01 8mo agoThe macOS Claude app is absolutely an electron app, which is what the github issue in this post is about. If you'd like to verify for yourself: On your mac, right click on the Claude app icon and click on "Show Package Contents" and then navigate to Contents > Frameworks > Electron Framework.framework.
- bigyabai 8mo agoI don't know if Electron is the issue here, my Wintel machine has Claude Code running 24/7 and doesn't ever heat up. Might be virtualization woes or something adjacent.
