I think the author is saying a potential issue of a vanilla implementation of immediate mode. The following text explains that there is already many optimizations for this
- inigyou 2mo agoNothing in HTML is immediate mode. Any framework with a DOM is retained mode, by definition.
- pedro_movai 2mo agoBut the api is trying to simulate immediate mode using DOM
- inigyou 2mo agoThat's called an "abomination". The advantage of immediate mode is not storing a DOM. If you write immediate-mode code but it stores a DOM anyway then it's the worst of both worlds.
- Warwolt 2mo agoHow would you do layouting without a tree structure in place? Not really sure what you're getting at here
- inigyou 2mo agoYou have discovered one advantage of retained-mode designs.
- sroerick 2mo agoIsn't that literally React? I find it so immeasurably funny that in his effort to simplify code and invent immediate mode UI, Casey Muratori accidentally invented React
- blenderob 2mo ago> I think the author is saying a potential issue of a vanilla implementation of immediate mode. And you (pedro_movai) == the author? So you are saying that potential issue? Sorry, technically you are right that the author is saying that but I got confused with you referring to yourself in third person. Nothing wrong with it. Just want to confirm if you're the author.
