One issue I have with Electron is that if I put my computer to sleep without restarting it and have all the applications up all the time, Electron apps gets very slow and sluggish and lags very much. Slack is a good example of this.

I have to restart my computer every now and then in order to keep using Slack and Atom, because otherwise it lags so much. I don't know, I think I prefer UWP apps instead.




VSCode doesn't seem to suffer from this and isn't it also running on Electron?

Maybe it's more of a memory leak thing that TypeScript doesn't have.


No idea, don't use it. But the two applications I use that I know use Electron suffer from the issue I am experiencing.


Pssst. TypeScript is JavaScript.
