knockout js is that you?
- rivetfasten 1y agoI was about to mention this too. Compare: "import a specific lightweight library and wire together as needed" vs "write the whole app in terms of a bloated framework". I've been out of the frontend game for a while, but what does react give you that knockout and maybe some url management logic do not? I guess components are supposed to standardize modularity, so you can easily import some random widget?
- alserio 1y agoThe biggest downside of knockout is that it parses the template from the dom, and the template is rendered as dom until first execution. Then that it eval it's bindings. I suppose tko should help with those issues but seems kinda dead. Knockout reactivity primitives are also a lot more naive then modern signals implementations.
- prokopton 1y agoRich Harris of Svelte often mentions Knockout when talking about Svelte’s signals.
- hhthrowaway1230 1y agohow many permutations of Fe dev do we need? - auto rerender by comparing trees? - track all changes by signals?
