If you’re like anyone at TNW, you’re probably using Slack every day, all day long.
I don’t mind; it’s a well designed app. But their newly released beta is bringing it to another level.
Their current macOS app is built using MacGap, which is a wrapper for web apps — so technically, it was just a port of the web version of the Slack website in a desktop window. However, the beta is rebuilt from the ground up using Electron, speeding things up significantly.
- Insanely fast start-up and team switching
- The team bar now changes according to your color scheme
- A fancy new top without that ugly desktop frame
- The app in general is way more speedy
