Reviewer scorecard
“Hot reload, custom rendering engine, and Dart is surprisingly pleasant. Best for custom UI that needs pixel-perfect cross-platform.”
“Fastest editor I've ever used. Native performance, real-time collab, and the AI integration is well-designed.”
“Dart limits the developer pool. React Native with TypeScript/JavaScript has a much larger talent market.”
“Fast but the extension ecosystem is small compared to VS Code. You'll miss plugins you depend on.”
“Google's commitment level is uncertain given their track record. React Native has more ecosystem momentum.”
“The next-gen editor built for AI and collaboration. Rust performance advantage over Electron is real.”
