Yes, the runtime needs to be JavaScript. It’s not obviously faster, but it’s been benchmarked to be faster. https://youtu.be/nXCSloXZ-wc You can skip to 29:34 for the performance d…

When you write JavaScript, you can only optimize it..as JavaScript. It still needs to be parsed, compiled, and optimized as JavaScript. When you write templates, you get more room …

> Standard / Official way of doing things If you like that, why not go with Ember?

I would imagine this works in your terminal too.

Is eBay.com built with Marko?

We use a combination of Atomics and BEM in our project. Atomics offers single level specificity thus providing a strategy to combat the specificity problem that plagues many projec…

That's the thing. All claims of Alibaba's adoption of Vue comes from the author himself. I think it's reasonable to have doubt. I'm sure they use it. But to claim that they heavily…

I like to see some evidence of this claim. Certainly Alibaba.com is not built with Vue.

That is the word on the street, but I have yet to see publicly visible evidence of it. You can inspect Facebook to see React is there. You can inspect Walmart to see React is there…

Meaningful contribution in what way? This is Vue's contribution graph sorted by addition: https://github.com/vuejs/vue/graphs/contributors?from=2016-0... The #2 person contributes …

That's also why taking on Vue is a huge risk. The project has a high bus factor. If the main author burnt out and quit, the project is dead.

Nurse is licensed though. That's instant credibility.

Interesting... Since requestIdleCallback leaves the scheduling out of your hand, how do you ensure nodes are still updated when you need it? Like tests?

Does Fiber yield control back to the js engine when doing the "rebasing"? Or are all of these synchronous in one frame?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Fiber sounds like a micro tasker for React? Ember had been doing this for years through Backburner run loop

Well, Glimmer actually compiles opcodes to just numbers. So it wouldn't be `a(e,"id","bar")`, it's actually [1,'id','bar']. Opcodes' wire format is an array. I haven't see it being…

I don't believe we will ever move away from JavaScript. Remember GWT? It's Google's pseudo WebAssembly built at the height of Java's popularity. It compiles your Java code into Jav…

Yup. This happens if I was coding right before bed with a problem not solved yet. Most of the time the dream was about me typing random things into the screen that doesn't make any…

It's not "a" core maintainer. LinkedIn now has 4 (out of 13) Ember core members on board.

Vue.js feels like the dark matter is JavaScript world. The impact is not directly observable, but you can definitely feel it's gravitational pull.

To be honest, I really miss the good old flex + wsdl days. Component architecture, check. Two way binding, check. Optional type, check. IDE, check. My favorite, typed components, c…

That'll probably never catch on. Front end dev already have 10 frameworks and 5 browsers to worry about. Let's not add 10 more languages for a total of 500 different combinations.
