Smaller binary size #3

I'd love to give your apps a try, but being over 100MB for something as simple as editing notes (or bookmarks) just feels so wrong to me.

As I'm completely unfamiliar with Electron and it's development, all I can do is ask if using something like Electrino is possible and viable.

Hope you understand what I mean :blush:

I understand your point, the Electron footprint is rather large. I wrote these app solely because they didn't exist and I needed them.

Electron is simply the quickest way I could do that. Electrino sound like a good idea in principle - but it seems to just be a proof of concept and nowhere near production ready.

That being said - my main reason for sharing these apps on GitHub is so that anyone can take them and do what they want to them.

(I would have called it Neutrino! 😉)

@dgmid Right, I understand, thanks for explaining!

Well if you ever feel inspired to explore smaller file sizes, you have at least 1 person who will cheer you on :tada: :wink:
