What does Ctrl shift I do (I'm not at my computer and I don't have any electron apps installed)
opens chromiums dev tools
Does it really have to? Vscode is built on top of it, I don't think it's ever opened chromium dev tools for the app (maybe I'm wrong?)
Some apps can disable it, I think Discord does so people don't get tricked into pasting random scripts into the console
That is true, though it's possible to re-activate them through a configuration file in discord. However, a developer can fully disable the tools if they wish
For VSCode, click Help -> Toggle Developer Tools
on raspbian, don't remember which version, ctrl shift I opens dev tools Edit vs code dev tools
Open the dev tools in electron app that where so badly coded that they are not blocked as they should in the first place. In short, bad app developer makes bad apps, and people complain about the framework instead of complaining about the lazy dev.
choosing to use electron is lazy
