      Is it one though? I’m having a difficult time finding the source code of this new version.

      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:

      Mozilla also still plans to use the Firefox web browser as the core platform for Thunderbird. That leaves Thunderbird as one of the few cross-platform mail applications that isn’t an Electron app or based on web technologies in some way

      So possibly Electron-like but based on Firefox rather than Chromium?
