A webui halicunated just for you? I think this must be by far the scariest and from my point of view worst idea you could ever come up with, no offense. Why would you ever want your web-experience to be non deterministic. A different ui every time you load? Even longer loading spinners then with mbs of react dependencies today? This is wrong on more levels then I could count
yes! I just don't understand that as well. Up until some time ago claud code's preferred install was a npm i, wasn't it? Please serious answers for why anyone would use a web language for a terminal app
Bat is nice. Oh dang now i have to try this plugin. I remember trying a couple of similar ones that got me so frustrated that i abandoned the idea of markdown viewers in nvim... Here we go again XD
Mass of learning material doesn't equal quality though. The amount of poor react code out there is not to underestimate. I feel like llm generated gleam code was way cleaner (after some agentic loops due to syntactic misunderstanding) than ts/react where it's so biased to produce overly verbose slob.
I literally couldn't care less. You can call it '1th of April' for all that i care if the actual functionality you offer is clean and fast I'll gladly accept!
I might still got ptsd from a job where literally all of the rust codebase was written as macros. Since then I avoid them at all costs.
I find the route, that gleam took, way more elegant with squirrel (sqlx-ish) and lustre (elm-like) being examples of what we could have instead. Avoiding language mixing is so important for proper/clean lsp-support - yet macros are a different language as i see it.
As for the rest of this: i also don't see how it's any different from iced, egui etc. but maybe I didn't take the time to check the details...
XD yes sure. I'd most definitely put those on the same level. Maybe even favor an UI prototyper if it comes down to the real deal. Who needs an open heart surgery when you can have a magnificent css-hover animation that really seals the deal on some 90%-AI-generated slob that only caters to delusional top-management completely out-of-touch with reality.
Irony off: Let's try it with a bit of humbleness next time, ey?
What? Gleam can compile to js. I don't see the similarity to kotlin being oo and all. Gleams compile time is lightyears ahead of anything on the jvm. I appreciate kotlins nullability constraints but to me it seems the jvm ecosystem is too grown to give kotlin the space it needs. Also heared that java's pattern matching and exhaustive checks have surpassed kotlins? In that case it's just easier to role with java, no?
