VS code is really good. Somehow it feels way better to program in than Xcode does.

But I don’t know any other electron apps that feel responsive. Slack, discord, Notion... all super simple apps which respond like molasses.

There are better choices than both of these imho - Appcode and Jetbrains for example.

If your example of "Good native application" is AppCode, you're beyond saving lol

thats a bit harsh - Appcode is a java app but better than Xcode and VSCode, and java is a step up from electron in performance. Xcode is faster but lacks a lot of features that Appcode has.

If you want fast native development then I recommend Delphi - but that is not PC either.

BitWig audio is a Java UI and is quite competitive with the native DAWs.
