HyperTerm – JS/HTML/CSS Terminal

How so? It affects load time, understandability, binary size, dependency payload...

I personally hate the load times. Node apps always seem to need to think for a second or too. Sublime Text v VSCode is pretty bad. Sublime Text v Atom is even worse.

When you're moving fast and in your flow, it gets to be really annoying.

I was talking more about how it affects end users. Understandability of the code and dependencies are irrelevant in this case. Load time is important, but LOC is only a proxy for that metric. It's not totally unreasonable to imagine a well-written app with twice the code start faster than a poorly written one.
