Some people think it’s bad performance and bloat. They learned it ten years ago and haven’t questioned it
So what’s the alternative, Tauri?
Both Tauri and Electron are excellent

yeah, it's easier to made them now then before. I've made myself two editors recently: https://wander.md - WYSIWYG editor that works on mac, iphone and iPad and has semantic versioning backend in. https://original.me - fully native macOS editor that uses Apple Notes as backend. those are ver interesting to build, but also way more possible. I think it would have take me years before.
When there is a cost. Please show it on the website. I couldn’t find if for wander.
wander is free.
i will add optional wander-native cloud sync and would probably charge for that.

#83I’m going to post this every time there’s a new markdown to pdf submission: quarto (https://quarto.org) is my go to tool. You can use it in R Studio, visual studio code or the cli. Uses pandoc under the hood, has support for latex and many more niceties.

#84Are markdown editors the new todo list app?
There so many of them published, and probably thousands more that are someone's introduction to coding and just sitting is a github rotting away.

#85Not to be banging the same drum - but with AI it's so much easier to write a native app. No need for electron app esp. in the days when RAM costs more than a used car.

#88I've compromised a lot with Electron (because I finally had to!) but never for a lightweight text editor app. Never! Here are some alternatives if anyone is looking https://editorio.crncevic.org https://macdown.app/ (FOSS) https://github.com/MarkEdit-app/MarkEdit (FOSS) And if you must have an electron one then here are some FOSS options https://marktext.me
I want to piggy-back off this: if there must be an electron application, then at least make it available on different platforms
