it returns undefined, because return statement doesn’t allow line break right after return. thankfully, modern IDEs will most likely give you a squiggly warning or even error, depending on your settings.

I disable js in Chrome Dev Tools or use text browser e.g. lynx

I also released ts2c 2.2.10 to npm - that's gonna be the last version based on TypeScript most likely.

The online demo at andrei-markeev.github.io/ts2c/ is using 2.2.10 for now.

Even though I despise dynamic forms, but I built a dynamic forms engine myself about 3 years ago, to replace manually built forms 🤷‍♂️

The use case literally demanded it.

It was a long onboarding wizard with huge amount of customization per location, and we had hundreds of locations.

Ah so it was form generation from a schema?

Yeah I wholeheartedly agree that in 95% cases it's better to make forms manually. Like write them in JSX. If non-devs want to do it, there's e.g. Figma and then devs can brush up the result.

However, there are different use cases too.

sounds actually like a cool project to me :)

I did "intelligent" forms several times, for React and Vue, but never had to work with AST transforms for this, typings were enough.

it might be challenging, but why horrible?

used it in ts2c: github.com/andrei-marke...

I am actually quite proud of myself:

1. Investing a lot of hard work and still being able to withdraw is not easy.

2. Learned quite a bit about #javascript performance from this exercise :)
