The idea is:
A desktop client app that can leverage more resources from the machine because browsers limit the resources a single tab can use in the UI.
Currently the UI starts to hang and show delays even for writing text in a Sticky note, when the workflow is big or too much data is going through the workflow.
My use case:
Big workflows, too much data/pinned data flowing through the nodes.
I think it would be beneficial to add this because:
Using browser tabs limits RAM and CPU usage, even after trying different browsers and tweaking the launch flags. Having a desktop client app can allow for more RAM and CPU usage to work faster in bigger workflows.
This would also allow for more performance when the PC hardware is better, instead of being capped by the browser.
Any resources to support this?

Are you willing to work on this?
I don’t have the developer knowledge for this, but I can be a dedicated beta tester for sure!
