When i read that i found it amazing and very clever, i honestly never thought if it was or not Notch's invention.
I am not really into javascript/frontend development, but following js13k on twitter showed me a lot of things you can do to gain KBs on the client side.
However, is this that common?
Thanks for the info btw.
- skrebbel 8y agoIn 1k sizecoding it's rather uncommon because usually the decompression code (i.e. load the png, read the pixels) is bigger than the savings. I never dove into 13k sizecoding but I bet the payoff is much better there. I wouldn't be surprised if all decent 13k sizecoding entries would do something like this. some compression for sure, and why not PNG then?
