Oh, do I have a terminal emulator to sell you:

I mean Hyper is really just an IDE that's REPL focused and so it makes as much sense to be in Electron as VSCode.

It makes ALOT of sense that vscode is written in electron. Why would you think otherwise?

I don't read the parent comment as saying that vscode shouldn't be written in electron. I read it as the opposite, that they are defending the terminal emulator using electron.

Also, out of interest, what reasons would you give for vscode being written with electron?
