- Doxin 7y agoOh awesome, I actually messed with broadway some yesterday on Gtk3 and while it works incredibly well it has some drawbacks to the point where I don't really see a use case so maybe you can enlighten me somewhat. The main downside I see is that every single keystroke needs a roundtrip to the server. Given a ping time of ~200ms that already makes it nearly unusable. So that leaves running broadway on localhost but then why use broadway at all? You might as well run it normally. Anyways it's a really cool backend and I feel like with a small amount of work it could actually be used for web-apps, with the amazing advantage of basically eliminating front-end programming entirely.
