Comment on The Great Software Quality Collapse: How We Normalized Catastrophe

Being obtuse for a moment, let me just say: build it right!
That means minimalism! No architecture astronauts! No unnecessary abstraction! No premature optimisation!
Lean on opinionated frameworks so as to focus on coding the business rules!
And for the love of all that is holy, have your developers sit next to the people that will be using the software!
All of this will inherently reduce runaway algorithmic complexity, prevent the sort of artisanal work that causes leakiness and speed up your code.

Electron should be illegal

Every single electron software i used was laggy mess, including Vscode. Tauri is more decent but still a browser.

Tauri gives similar functionality but is written in rust, has good security models and is fast.

More importantly, it doesn’t bundle fucking chrome

Are Electron and Tauri drop-in replacable? So is it possible to run e.g. VSCode in Tauri?

Dunno. Always avoided electron because everyone said how slow and crash print it is. I very much doubt it, though. Upgrading from tauri v1 to tauri v2 is already non trivial to the extent that I didn’t bother for a new project because I already had bindings and config for v1. I’d be very surprised if they just copied election got the interface for their shiny new, more principled, faster, leaner, less leaky, more secure, “better” web-as-ui thing.
