Finda’s architecture[0] is great for this discussion.

On the one hand, you can say “look, an Electron app that’s actually fast!”

On the other hand, you can say “wow web apps are slow; it takes ~50x longer to render a basic list than to regex search across tens of thousands of strings”.

From a performance perspective, the JS part of the stack certainly isn’t helping.
