Has anyone here actually tried using it? I'd be interested to hear a comparison between Revery and Electron in terms of ease of use, performance, drawbacks etc. I read through the README but tbh I'd prefer an external opinion.

look at qmoji[1] a mojibar[2] (electron app) clone written in reasonml.

The README includes package size, and memory usage comparisons.

Looks like this is using Fluid rather than Revery. Not sure about memory usage in Revery but I think it should be lower than that. Definitely something I'll look into

63.4 MB of RAM usage for this small of a app seems a lot for me still.

It does improve in comparison to electron, specially in storage space usage, but in my opinion it still is overkill...
