I always wonder when people choose to use the word peformant if that’s what they really wanted to say. I mean it’s good that the grid works well enough to be considered functional, but is that really what they were shooting for? I suspect they meant to say fast or maybe fast and small.
> Performant means that something is working correctly or well enough to be considered functional. In a technology context, this term is believed to have originated with programmers seeking a concise word to express that a system or program will work, but may not yet be optimal.
That's interesting. While that seems to be consistent with other definitions online, in my experience most software developers use the word as a synonym for "fast" or "efficient".
