Ooh interesting. What is your machine and browser? On chrome with my m1 macbook it takes less than 1ms to compute and render each frame, but I am noticing some things I can optimiz…

I made my own WASM demo @ https://microui-wasm.vercel.app/ and it's only 14.6 kB compressed! Will share source code if someone is interested, but key bits: - had a small JS glue la…

I don't necessarily hate Lua, but I prefer C and Raylib for game dev. Lua is garbage collected, dynamically typed, strays far from standard syntax patterns, and has less existing t…

made a non-ascii of this where nice og images of the board are generated! https://correspondence-chess-production.up.railway.app/

this is the way to go! making a move should automatically copy the new url to your clipboard. you can still keep the ascii charm by server side rendering the ascii chess board as a…

`const foo = function() {}`

I'm guessing you don't consider VSCode an IDE? I'm curious, what features do you use in IDEs that are missing in VSCode?

These are great points! Thanks for the super thoughtful reply. I'm actually sold. 1. It's really nice that it's so easy to make a `createSignal` 2. I didn't realize that in Solid y…

Whoops, I missed that. Good catch! I'm not sure how tln's problem is happening then.

Implicit reactive `let` statements make the code harder to understand for humans AND the compiler. This new explicit state pattern even simplifies designing. Now reactive state can…

Make sure you opt in to use runes! You can do it project wide or per component: https://svelte-5-preview.vercel.app/docs/runes

Instead of finding reactive dependencies at compile time, `$effect` and `$derived` automatically track dependencies at runtime. This might feel like it would result in a performanc…

Fair points, though React has hugely complex runtime magic. SolidJS's compiler magic is just as simple while also having much a simpler runtime.

To be fair, assignments to variables still update the state of your component. `count += 1` will still update the state of your component. I think what you meant is that you now ne…

> The $effect runes makes people think we are going down the React useEffect route... but I didn't see a dependency array attached there waiting to obliterate performance? This is …

If you created `anotherThing` as nested state, then just the children! See this for a real example: https://svelte-5-preview.vercel.app/docs/fine-grained-reacti... Here is the same…

Most of this I really love. One thing seems a bit strange though... Let's compare Svelte's and Solid's approach to nested reactivity. Both of them implement the same nested reactiv…

This example is a bit strange to me. I wonder if `$effect` will actually replace all usage of `onMount` and `onDestroy` for Svelte. In Solid you could totally do these things with …

I snooped around Rich's GitHub history and found he's working on esrap[1], a package to convert an AST into code. It uses Bun for development and testing! Crazy theory: esrap will …

> I wonder if it's possible to put this code in the backend in C++, what do you think? Yeahh, looks like you'd have to connect to all these signals and be able to access sizing/pos…

Whoops, I should have been more clear. When I said "It's all very unoptimized and dynamic QMLScript" I meant just the file `Flex.qml`. I'm sure the Qt C++ bindings are fast and gre…

> Note that is also possible to create a new properties and signals for the Text which can be referenced by the children This behavior exists without inheritance as well! Let's ima…

It's really awesome someone did this. If you just want the expressiveness of flexbox and don't care about performance, this is perfect! However, wouldn't the performance for this b…
