Thanks for bringing the Electron topic! I'm actually using Electron, and it's mostly a web app - the reason being that will make it easier to host it online when I add support for cloud sandboxes. I imagine in the near future that we (developers) won't be writing much manual code anymore, and our time will be spent validating work or guiding agents to do said work (planning, architecture decisions, validating business logic, etc).

Electron on its own isn't that bad, and surely not responsible for GBs of RAM - the main bottleneck I'm facing when dealing with a dozen+ parallel tasks is that each claude code terminal eats up easily 200MB of RAM.

When you mention Electron, is it because in most Electron apps the experience doesn't feel snappy, as it would vs native?
