Textual words from them:
It’s our first step towards a more modern, more beautiful, and more customizable Thunderbird experience. We think you’re going to love it, and we are endlessly grateful for all of your support throughout the years 💙
Can anyone confirm whether or not it’s built on Electron?
The closest I can find is from Feb 2023, saying that at that time it would not be Electron:
So possibly Electron-like but based on Firefox rather than Chromium?
From what I’ve read, it is not, but it basically contains Firefox to do the rendering.
It’s based on the “Mozilla application framework” [0]

It’s not an electron app, I installed it.
Electron apps bundle chromium…. It would be ridiculous for Mozilla to bundle their competitions web browser to make Thunderbird lol.
