I think the point the author tried to make, though it not be explicitly written down by him, was that Electron apps do not (easily) have the look-and-feel of native apps. You use Electron


because it’s easy to get stuff up and running (low-entry), demo stuff to potential clients, etc. And if you would like to build such a feature rich text-editor like VSC you’ll need a whole


lot of resources to get it right, so why not burn those resources on a actual native solution instead of the Electron solution. What is the actual added value of Electron when you develop


with it to that extent? (i.e. a native solution easily being more resource-friendly) I’d like to point out that I’m not entirely against Electron, I’m a vivid user of VSC and love it. But I


see where the author is coming from, I have seen so many bad looking Electron solutions. Especially when people start using Material in their Electron app, I mean come on you’re not even


trying.
