Vast majority use CSS modules or tailwind. Tamagui is explicitly React Native and Web focused so yea you don’t learn CSS as directly, but that’s the point as there’s no CSS on native. It’s not really relevant since Svelte doesn’t do native

No one believes the gospel of syntax, simplicity, and inline styles more than me [0]. I made that before Svelte was a thing and the Vue creator actually asked if he could borrow multiple ideas from that as he was making it. But idk what Rea

It's great to argue for Vue/Svelte, but just to clarify - the entire point about HTML/CSS isn't really true, there's no difference in support between React or any other framework there. And disagree on HTML/CSS

Be careful, autoimmune conditions can affect the stomach and present symptoms similar to IBS, GERD, including projectile vomiting after eating. I know because I had that for years, but it was cyclical. Every time I thought I had it beat due

In retrospect UX rather than UI would have been better in my post as I agree with this mostly (and I'd love a chance to redesign either app, that'd be a joy).

Could easily go into a very long list of reasons as a long-time app/UX developer, but playing against the computer is a good starting point: on Chess.com as a beginner I was immediately able to play against a wide variety of AI's,

The game reviews are really nice to quickly see the key points of the game. Plus the UI all over is better than Lichess. That and network effects explain the rest.

Tamagui is now making 2,500 a month purely from GitHub Sponsors. Pretty amazing. It’s fully OSS, just developed by me. Somewhat non-replicable as it’s just been a passion project in some for or another for 7 years now, reborn several times.

Tamagui gets you Chakra-like features with even better theming, performance and works on Native to boot.

That example doesn't use shorthands to be more clear, and shows the styled utility function which is a more advanced case of wanting to define a group of styles nicely. Which is incidentally fixing a couple of the problems in TFA. If y

It’s just React through and through. It has an optional optimizing compiler that really improves performance even across hard to parse areas like nested conditional logic or spreads of items across module boundaries.

Tamagui really aims to solve this problem and some of the usability problems of className by putting style props directly on the props. You can nest components and abstract them as you want and still get the Tailwind style shorthands except

Tamagui actually does solve all four of the mentioned problems in the article. One nice thing is that it does so in a way that allows for avoiding doubling the depth of your component tree by having to do HOC type solutions as many seem to

The fan is much stronger too, so not literally it. Changing two of the most significant parameters gives it entirely new utility that ovens didn’t and don’t capture. In effect it’s closer to a microwave meets an air sous vice. Much quicker

by nwienert 4y ago
It’s much faster than most convection ovens as they existed, and so I think still smart to differentiate.

I do get that, but to me it all sums up to “much worse than Google in the best case”. StackOverflow is almost never wrong at the top answer and again has many coherent responses for many use cases with contextual help, where GPT is often su

I don’t see ChatGPT as any different from gpt3 really, it still makes all the same category of mistakes. It’s very distinguishable from a human in that you can trivially make it contradict, say nonsense, and it still makes all sorts of erro

It’s a good point that the docs can be clearer here, but all your conclusions are off - all styles work on buttons and everything renders native and web the same, it says that all over the place.

Styles extracted at build time, but fall back to runtime. This is necessary for many things, animations being one, but in the future there’s a potential for compiling fully way for limited use cases. I’ll check the bundle size, I think two

Web is the much more performance sensitive side, where it improves most. If you do pseudo styles or responsive styles with RNW your web app will absolutely tank in all metrics, runtime/lighthouse/load/layout. Tamagui fixes al

It has a ton of DX features that I think are underrated: both the debug prop and pragma, and compile time data-attributes to help link your files to DOM.

by nwienert 4y ago
I’d agree with you if the compiler was mandatory, but it’s not. In fact the docs recommend not setting it up until you are ready to deploy to production. It very much is just a function.

Weird I get some reports of this but very rare. I’ve tested now in iOS 15, 16 and desktop across a bunch of devices. Can’t replicate with me or close friends. I’ll download chrome for iOS.
