    Je n'utilises pas et n'ait pas besoin de Volt, et çapusaipalibre mais ceci me réjouit:

    What language is Volt written in?

    V. It's a new language I created to develop Volt. You can read about it here.

    Volt uses native UI APIs: (Cocoa on macOS, Win32 API on Windows, GTK+ on Linux).

    Is it really only 300 KB? Or is it just an installer that downloads another 300 MB?

    No, it's not an installer. The entire app fits into a ≈300 KB ZIP archive, and the only extra thing it downloads is ≈300 KB of high res icos, which are not required for the app to work.

    In the age of 300 MB chat clients and 10 MB web pages we started to forget how powerful our computers are and how much can fit in 1 MB. A lot of time and resoures were spent to ensure the small size and great performance.
