Today on Twitter Microsoft CVP Engineering for Microsoft Team, revealed that Microsoft is revamping Microsoft Teams with a  major engineering change.

The company is moving from Electron to an Edge Webview 2 and Angular to React.js, which is expected to bring numerous improvements.

Microsoft expects the change to reduce memory usage by half, and support feature such as multiple accounts, work-life scenarios, release predictability and scaling up for the client.

Microsoft will also be building Teams into Windows 11, though exactly what this means remains unclear.
