There may be some limitations and some things may need to be done differently because of C++, but from a brief look it should be basically possible. The UI library doesn't need to iterate through props, those can be a single opaque structure from its point of view.
I tried doing something similar in Kotlin a few years back and from what I remember there wasn't any reflection used for that part. https://github.com/peterholak/mogul https://github.com/peterholak/mogul
- ptx 7y agoThat Kotlin project looks pretty cool! What happened to it – was there some fundamental problem, or just lack of time?
- realharo 7y agoMostly just lack of time, more important things got in the way, and it became less fun after the initial excitement. I'm also still not convinced that Kotlin/Native will catch on in any significant way, but we'll see.
