Looks just like VS Code and I think it's still built on electron so take that as you will.

Why would they copy VSCode including the aspect people hate most.

Had they made it in a native gui I might actually consider it. Otherwise, why wouldn't I just choose vscode.

Ease of plugin development is a major boon

Well it can't really be a native gui and be cross platform.

I meant native as in non-web. There are plenty of cross-platform GUI toolkits out there that don't use JavaScript. Some of them native-looking even. But more than the looks, it's about performance.

There aren't many good cross platform GUI toolkits. I mean realistically is there anything other than Qt?
