The WhatsApp desktop beta for macOS is built using Catalyst, and it's pretty nice. Catalyst is when an iOS and macOS app share one codebase, but can have different interfaces. I've been using it for a few weeks and no complaints so far. I believe the stable version app is Electron (or some web technology). The beta is full on native now!

I wasn't aware of this. Thanks! The difference in performance is definitely noticeable and addresses the biggest issue I had with WhatsApp.
