I’ve been using wefwef WebApps to browse the fediverse and am curious to understand how it works. I do not have knowledge deep knowledge about coding or programming.

    Regarding Teams, you mean it’s a web app on mobile? I thought the MS Teams Windows application was written in that API that uses insane amounts of resources for what it does (although it does work, so I’m not necessarily criticizing using a library that works).

      The Microsoft teams desktop app is written using a JavaScript framework called Electron. Electron is just a framework that allows you to write a single-page web app and install/launch it like a native application. Because it’s written in JavaScript (the same language web browsers use. Electron apps are literally their own chromium based web browser. It’s part of the reason those apps use so much of your computers resources) it is OS agnostic and cross platform without really needing consideration.
