Destroyer of performance
Well, it’s faster than Python.
If done correctly. Electron is slow as crap in most cases. It can be optimized but it usually isn’t.
I know that Electron≠JavaScript, of course but JavaScript continous being used for stuff it shouldn’t be used for
I was talking specifically about NodeJS servers. JS has much better execution speed than Python due to having JIT compilation.
Hasn’t this been the case for a looong time?
Yes it has, this meme is not necessarily with the times
Edit: or at least, a tiny bit dated. Although I’ve written and deployed express servers… Haven’t yet encountered any enterprise level back-end architecture written in JavaScript.
Usually in C# or Java.

Cries in Polkit
TIL that polkit uses js for its rule
I often jokingly push for 2 technologies at work. The first is Oracle Linux 9 and the second is Electron.
Everyone wants to removed about JavaScript. How about using languages like Python and Java to create websites? You have to use an entire bloated framework and compilation just to be able to use a language that was never intended to be used for websites. Java web frameworks are atrocious.
The experience of using these JS frameworks is not comparable to using Java or Python as if they were PHP. There’s tangible (and monetary) benefits to using web tool for the web.
All I see is haters.
