The irony is absolutely chef's kiss! Electron.js claims to be "small and fast" while being notorious in the dev community for being exactly the opposite. It's basically the framework that lets you build desktop apps with web technologies, but at the cost of your users' RAM and CPU cycles. Your computer fans spinning up to takeoff velocity after opening a simple Slack or Discord app? Yep, that's Electron working its "small and fast" magic. The atomic symbol is just the perfect cherry on top of this glorious contradiction.
