Comment on We Chose Tauri over Electron for Our Performance-Critical Desktop App

Comments

I miss my wxwidget days, when we had true cross platform devs.

Yes, it came with drawbacks, but it felt snappy and bloatfree.

Whereas modern apps feast on RAM and CPU... Having an app boasting light weight, when before we had 16 to 64MiB for WHOLE system feels ironic

Is wxwidget not a viable choice in 2025 anymore?

It is, from a tech point of view. It isn't from a workforce point of view. Which makes me sad, but still remains a fact.
