Electrons Are Fast, So Can Be Electron – How to Optimize Electron App Performance

• node-addon-api

  12 2,045 8.6 C++

  Module for using Node-API from C++

  

If we want it fast, Node-API looks like a perfect solution. A library written in C/C++ must be fast. If you prefer to use C++ over C, the node-addon-api can help. This is probably one of the best solutions available, especially since it is officially supported by the Node.js team. It’s super stable once it is built, but it can be painful during development. Errors are often far from easy to understand, so if you are no expert in C, it might kick your ass very easily.

• rust-crc32fast

  4 230 4.8 Rust

  Fast, SIMD-accelerated CRC32 (IEEE) checksum computation in Rust

With NAPI-RS, we need to build a library that includes https://crates.io/crates/crc32fast to calculate CRC32 extremely fast. NAPI-RS gives us great ready-to-go workflows to build NPM packages, so building it and integrating it with the project is a breeze. Prebuilts are supported, too, so you don’t need the Rust environment at all to use it, the correct build will be downloaded and used. No matter if you use Windows, Linux, or MacOS (Apple M1 machines are on the list too.)
