>let’s make a text editor that performs
Just say “let’s make a text editor.” It’s obvious you want it to function.
Kevin Hernandez
It's slow as shit and Electron is the worst thing ever happened, but VS Code is the damn best editor nonetheless
Luis Clark
Literally just use vim

Stop being poor computers are meant to be used and modern apps demand modern machines.

just merely 'functioning' and 'smooth, fast, and with no wait times or slowdown' are two different things.

I don't care what's under the hood, VSCode is fucking awesome.

That's not what peformant would mean in that context; it would mean "A text editor designed around performance" as opposed to being designed around something like ease of use or extensibility
Gabriel Morales
in other words, "performant" is another word for "fast". This is been common lingo in the tech world for a while now. I'm surprised it's new to you.

Look I'm not a fan of VSCode myself, I'm a emacs user, but the main draw of VSCode in my viewpoint is the easy extensibility of it since it's written in a "modern" language, huge developer support by Microsoft, and huge community support because of the previous two reasons.
If you're not a fucking basement autist you can at least appreciate this. I fucking wish Emacs was could be configured with something other than ELISP, I'd even take fucking javascript at this point.

Quoted for Truth.
I have never seen a healthier, happier, more diverse ecosystem build itself around a text editor.
(Disclaimer: I have never tried emacs, and probably never will. Sorry, diehards.)

Why. Do they. All. Talk. Like. This?.

I don't read any site that uses upvotes to strain content to the top. All that does is surface what the average 12-14 year old teen with nothing to do thinks of the world.
Bentley Rogers
Don't use VSCode
VSCodium is what you are looking for.
Anthony Sanders
I don't know why anyone would use this slow, bloated, blurry, non-native crap instead of just using the beautiful GNOME Builder.

Why did you make this thread, just to point out the obvious?
Anthony Nelson
VScode is one of the best electron applications.
And that should speak volumes about electron as a framework.
