That's a lot of functionality! How are you handling it? I expect it to get worse as more and more electron apps keep showing up.


Well, would a shared electron runtime make things better [0]?

Yes and no.

Yes if people used it, but no because people would probably not.

One of the reason electron is so easy to package: it creates a big blog of statically linked everything. If you start having to play the packaging game correctly, you get back to the same problems other run time had.

So my guess would be most users would not do it.
