To be fair, it usually starts out that easy, until you require multiple fetch requests and conditional logic for separate CRUD operations.

For my game I am generating thousands of distinct level elements. I cut them out and rearrange them into level terrain and backgrounds. There is definitely a craft to this kind of work: figuring out what you want, creating the prompts, phot

Even as a pretty experienced front-end developer I would often times ask myself “how the heck will I do this”. A lot of that changed with flex box and then css grid. “gap” especially has made is easier the formulate a plan without just poki

I should have been more specific, the codegen alleviates a large portion of back and forth that would have otherwise been spent asking the backend devs things like “why isn’t this working”, or “what has changed”. There is still a lot of com

I’ve gotten the impression that a new crop of psychologists has appeared in the last 10-15 years that almost encourages damaged people to go online, discover labels like “narcissist”, then categorise the people that have hurt them. The psyc

I’d also add that if you use Typescript with an OpenAPI client generator ( https://github.com/ferdikoomen/openapi-typescript-codegen ) it can immensely alleviate some of the biggest pain points of seperate backend and fr

Wow that is really impressive! What other libraries are you using. And do you have you have much experience with using the non-web targets?

I’ll second this by saying I am currently building a game with Kha, a low level rendering Haxe library that targets all major platforms including consoles. I am utilising the extremely performant 2d immediate mode api which is refreshingly

Uggh, as a full time React developer I cringe at the thought that React has actually solved anything. It has undoubtably advanced the front-end ecosystem considerably but by god does it feel like a brittle foundation in which to advance fur

It really depends on what you are using it for. The hierarchical semantics of XML makes hierarchal data so much easier to read, write, and query than anything you are likely to come up with in json. I’d go as far to argue that the whole rea

I don’t really like that first quote because, at least from what I have observed, really shitty people tend to operate in circles, as do really great people. It is perhaps not until you make a massive life change, such as moving city, that

It’s not ideal, but I’d go with something non-JavaScript. Heaps or Kha in the Haxe ecosystem would be a far more worthwhile choice IMO.

I would recommend against anyone using PixiJS. From a code perspective it feels dated and inconsistent. It can be very difficult finding correct information for the latest version, and you will very easily hit performance problems if you wa

At least from my own tests, I also found Ebiten extremely smooth and performant when building for the WASM target. There seems to be some people spouting a bit of nonsense in this thread without having actually given Ebiten a chance.

I also created a performance test with Ebitengine, like I have done for many 2d engines/rendering libraries in the past. Typically I like to test performance with the web/WASM target. More often than not, even just a few rotating

Why would you use a Mac versus PC. Why would you use FL Studio versus Logic, or grand piano versus a synthesiser? It comes down to the interface and the unique affordances it brings. A piece of musical hardware such a this is a musical inst

Curious, are you writing Adobe Air apps? I assume the only reason anyone would be writing new AS3 code is to maintain an old Adobe Air app. I ask because the I maintain one and I find the tooling and IDE experience brittle and horrible.

I also recommend for people to take a look at the haze library called Kha, if they are after the same kind of low level rendering that libraries like Monogame and Raylib offer.

I think we are reaching diminishing returns in the current paradigm that was sparked by React, but the iterative nature of the web means that a new paradigm is bound to appear. I think there are a number ways this can go. - Some older langu

I was resistant to Tailwind for a long time, and recently I decided to try it on a recent project. IMO it lives up to its reputation and has changed the game for me. The biggest pro for Tailwind is that it is exceptionally well designed. As
