Yes and no. Erlang does apply the "fail fast" idea and recommend to let actor crash instead of trying to handle the error (with some pragmatism ofc). But we are not talking about crashing the process of the whole app. In most case

I really, really can't wait for the extension to WASM to allow it direct access to the DOM and finally be able to remove the need for JS for 99% of its usage. I do a lot of frontend development and I just cannot fathom how badly design

Tooll3 comes from the demoscene. It was used to make many demos. It is really uncommon to make demotools that are cross-plateform because most demos try to take full advantage of the plateform they are running for various reason.

While I do enjoy a nice and smooth gpu-accelerated ui, I never use a gpu-ui framework for my own project for one simple reason: Almost none of them properly support accessibility. Electron (and in general the web), despite its sluggishness
