The main reason for using a stack was reducing verbosity because for short scripts using variables felt unnecessary when the type-prefix of the command already communicates the variable contents. But it could still be a good idea to have a

DOM bloat can certainly become a problem when adding lots of code in e.g. table rows. I added functions mainly to be able to move common code into a central place to minimize that problem. You certainly must get used to the stack based appr

I think the approach of HTMX is that UI state is primarily managed by delegating DOM updates to the server and then modifying the DOM with the response. With hyTags one can do a lot of things without server calls and without resorting to ja

For most tags you can also put the event handlers as first children inside the element, but self-closing tags like <input> don't support that. I'm now putting the event handlers always outside (as next siblings) for consiste

It's only frontend logic. There is a small runtime that is implemented in Javascript interprets html tags. Backend logic needs to be implemented on the server.

The main reason for using tags was for me that they can be generated from a host language and stay readable, even for longer scripts. I'm using Swifts result builders for my projects, which enables autocompletion and partial type safet

I did a Show HN for the language "hyTags" yesterday, too. It's a language embedded in HTML, using tags as syntax. It quickly dropped of the new page: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46599403 Could you ad

Or, phrased differently, if n has an upper limit, the algorithm is O(1).

So how does it work if a library owner changes something in his library—do they have to update all projects that depend on it and then push this as a single commit?

The Sapper version is cheating a little. It is preloading the pages on mouseOver events of the links.

One great application of this would be to hide the unsubscribe link if the email is forwarded.

I don't understand. Would't each of your 8 million followers get one push notification instead of you getting 8M when you post something?

About half a year ago. It turned 1500 lines of Dart into ~10000 lines of Javascript. That might not be that much to handle for a webview but it was quite hard to debug. I used it as a UserScript in WKWebView so I couldn't use DartEdito

I tried Dart when looking for a typed language that compiles to Javascript. It was nice but in the end I used haxe because it had a much smaller footprint. Dart seems to include its own library while haxe sticks close to what Javascript off

I don't think it's useful to extract every guard statement into a separate function. Consider importing a json file where each field could potentially contain invalid or missing data. Sure, you could create functions like parseTit

Unibox works pretty well for newsletters and notifications. They get grouped into one contact by sender, so e.g. 4 Twitter notifications only take one slot in the contact list. It works also really well for notifications that contain attach
