    >The same goes for Electron-based apps.
When it comes to Electron apps I think any failing to provider a top notch user experience is on the developer and not on the technology. Visual Studio Code is based on Electron and it is hands down the best text editor/IDE-lite out there because the team behind it put the time in to make seem like the type of app you would get out established UI frameworks within the target environment.


It might be faster than Atom, but it surely feels sluggish compared with other native editors on my system.

I only put up with it due to being the editor with the best support for Rust plugins.

The day I can have the same experience on Emacs for Rust, VSCode gets kicked out.


Code is not native. Where is the accessibility support? Native tabs? Performance? Look and feel? Compared to something like BBEdit, Code is a joke.
