> Also, it seems presumptuous to prescribe what appropriate solutions are for all people of all time. There are many, many places where an electronjs would be just fine.

And many where it wouldn't. It seems more presumptuous to me to demand that users have machines with that much memory and CPU to spare.

No one is demanding anything. VS Code exists. Lots of other code editors also exist. Many are native. Choose whichever one you want.

I did use it and find it subpar to JVM based IDE (namely Jetbrains). Yes, both are memory hogs, but Jetbrains feels smoother.
