   When it comes to winner-takes-all (the bread & butter of VC economics,) it strikes me as dissonant to bet both on no-code and on dev tools. No-code’s winner-takes-all scenario presumes full automation of developers. It’s in the name: no

   “REST for design tokens” is alluring because it’d be codebase-agnostic, but it would be incredibly risky & maintenance-intensive. Design tokens evolve. Builds would break when schemas change—or if you hacked around that you’d forfeit th

    Try importing `flutter/animation` — footprint goes WAY off the deep end. `animation.ddc.js` is 4.4MB alone (unminified), never mind the rest of the runtime AND userland application code. You can see this in the flutter_web/example

    This can already be done today through canvas & webgl, or through clever combinations of DOM + JS + CSS. You can control every pixel that's rendered to the screen through the browser. So why doesn't everyone roll their own?
