This is… actually not bad. :shocked:
- recursive 9y agoUhh... It seems very bad. I clicked "Run RMStudio DOM" in Chrome. It loaded dozens of java packages for half a minute, and then showed me a 90s looking splash screen with three buttons on it. None of them do anything. I'm assuming I'm supposed to be seeing something else. Edit: I tried "Run RMStudio Swing". That one actually loads eventually. I don't understand what kind of app it is, but it appears to leak DOM elements. I see 99 DOM elements when the editor first loads ("New"). Mousing back and forth over the menus for a few seconds makes the number of elements increase by hundreds, and it never goes back down.
- megamindbrian 9y agoThat's the not bad part! Half a minute for a Java app to load is twice as good as most. And it loads in your browser. Can you do the same thing to eclipse? That is still widely used despite how long it takes to load and how "90's the UI looks"
- wwweston 9y agoCongratulations! Sounds like the 90s Java applet experience to me.
- imron 9y agoYes. Yes it is. I mean as a technical feat it's impressive (in the same way as running Linux in the browser via JavaScript [0]). At the same time I'm horrified that someone would seriously do it (though I can understand the business reasons for wanting to do so). 0: https://bellard.org/jslinux/ https://bellard.org/jslinux/
