Is electron fast enough to make painting software? Or do I need

Tell me this is a troll thread and you aren't seriously this retarded

>>62095655
yes, use

<canvas>

. browsers are fast enough too if you want to just make a HTML version of mspaint

That's the idea. I'm wondering if there's noticable performance drops when complex stuff starts happening, like effect layers and whatnot.

You can always paint the surface yourself using OpenGL and [compiled language of choice].
Just make sure you don't poll events the whole time.
If you already know GLFW or OpenGL and want to make a simple mspaint like software, why not.
>canvas element
You can use WebGL, so usually that shouldn't be a problem if implemented right.
However, you have to decide between long loading times and memory usage with electron and retarded file handling and limited APIs with your normal browser.

yes

>>62095831
you need to make a prototype and see for yourself I guess. webgl would be fast enough 100% though

Per pixel manipulation is heavy as fuck, specially if you want to do things like radial blur.

You're probably better off either using C/C++, making a library in C/C++ that interacts with the electron, or just offloading the shit to the GPU with pixel shaders.

Does electron supports WEBASM?
