Really? Because the point is that when it comes to performance, just implementing your own "DOM" in C++ or some other low level language is going to have 10x the performance of electron, easily, in addition to having more features (better, smoother, file uploads would be welcome btw).

If you can put in unlimited coding engineering effort, why isn't Claude Code the very best it can possibly be?

Why isn't the fact that it can work 10% better an excuse to get claude to work on it for however long it takes?

I mean, most people here have done development with claude code, and we suppose the answer is simply: because that doesn't work without a capable engineer constantly babysitting the changes it's making, guiding it, nudging it, reminding it about edge cases, occasionally telling it it's being stupid ... it's a great product, incredible even, but it doesn't work without senior engineers.

Same question: Why doesn't it have more plugins and batch script and modfications than the app store? Surely it can by itself come up with 10000 good ideas and just implement them? Everything from little games to how to active bedroom lights by chinese vendor #123891791 ?
