Ok man, but I’m sure you get my point that Casey’s IM gui code looks more like React and traditional OO gui code looks more like making direct DOM manipulations. “True” IMGUI isn’t possible with the DOM, which is fine to poopoo!

I doubt anyone could really do a "good" UI layer for the web as long as it's still going through the DOM. The DOM is just an f'ing disaster.

I guess casey would prefer something more like svelte where you resolve this dependecies at compile time and not at run time with a virtual dom diff.

I'm fine with the DOM diff. It's the DOM itself that sucks, not the idea of diff'ing it. The DOM is horrid, regardless of what you're using to drive it. I have not looked at React et al, but I would be surprised if they were anything but a minor nuisance compared to the DOM.

Like, my data-free guess would be that these frameworks are poorly written, bloated, and slow compared to what they could optimally be, but most of that pales in comparison to the far-worse-on-all-those-same-counts DOM.

Web companies are nothing if not predictable :)

Given the DOM hatred, I’m wondering if Web Assembly or Canvas will gain real shares of users anytime soon.
