The Horror of Microsoft Teams
The Teams client is built on Electron? Why?<p>Developers need to stop building slow applications. This is ridiculous. It's 2019 and software is slower than it was in the 90s.<p>It must take an enormous number of CPU cycles to execute simple tasks in an Election-based app. It's just incredibly inefficient. I heard similar things about Slack – that it was built on Node, maybe Electron, and was dog slow, especially to open. It's frustrating that developers are bringing the slowness of the web to the desktop. Just build proper desktop applications using native desktop APIs.
