Why would you be using JS in this scenario?
Node.js, electron 🤷♂️
Something has gone horribly wrong if you're trying to do such optimisations when you've already chosen JavaScript...let alone Electron.
And yet it happens, just look at the molasses that is Teams
Thankfully the only interaction I have with teams is when a supplier arranges the call. Once every two weeks. It grosses me out every time...and that's the Web app.
Do you really think they have done such optimisation efforts as minimising function calls? I can't imagine it's required for what is actually a fairly simple frontend app. The complexity is the enabling stack on the backend.
Good answer.
Even if it made me throw up in my mouth a little. /s
Edit: Not the concept of Electron, itself - but being asked to write highly performant code in Electron.
