The Performance-First Code Editor That Transforms Development

Ignite Your Code with Catalyst Editor - Lightning-fast, resource-efficient development environment built with Tauri. All the power of VS Code without the Electron bloat.

Cross-platform
VS Code compatible
70% less memory usage

Why VS Code is Failing Developers

VS Code's Electron foundation creates performance issues, memory bloat, and process crashes. Extensions make it worse, not better. It's time for a native alternative built for speed.

Performance Degradation

Extensions slow everything down. Even basic operations become sluggish with a typical development setup.

Random Process Crashes

Electron's instability causes unexpected crashes, losing work and breaking development flow.

Memory Bloat

Electron apps consume excessive RAM. VS Code can easily use 1GB+ for basic editing tasks.

Built Different. Built Better.
