Totally agree.

The main disadvantage of Electron its oversized bundled package. 100+ Mb even for basic app is too much.

It bundles Chromium and NodeJS into the final app and hence the size. Hope they have some fix for it :D. For big apps like VS Code i guess this is fine. But for small apps the size is too much
