Word for Windows and Word for Mac are much closer together than you may realize. Pretty interesting talk about cross platform Office.

Ah, interesting. I always just took it for granted that the old Office codebases were huge beasts, but maybe not. Thanks for the info!

Still, no matter how nice that codebase is, I assume they can't beat Electron for ease of X-platform compatibility.
