I meant all the plugins and tools around design tokens - I was asking what are you building? since most of the stuff I could find is, eh, not good. 😌

which plugin? something that will be released? I've been testing so many plugins for design tokens and that whole ecosystem is a flaming mess. 😬

I remember I wanted the C128 mainly because it had faster BASIC with sprites 😂

C64 -> C128 -> Amiga 500 and everything after that is just PCs, I think my first was a 486 DX2, not sure 😄

man, I totally get where you're coming from. it must be so hard running OSS projects now.
the balance is way off already.
writing used to take 10-100x the effort of reading & understanding.
a PR now might "look real", even if no real effort went into it, even if it's not worth your time at all. 🙄

of course this is just how web components work, so no shade on Lit 🙂
but most other frameworks use a model where you can atomically update (and validate etc) multiple properties in a single call
you can't have that with web components. (or you could, but they wouldn't really be web components...)

yeah it's pretty much what I expected
so you wouldn't deal with invariants (like in my example) before it updates
so you either have to allow (and handle) invalid states, or throw exceptions during rendering (no useful stack trace) or leave elements in an undefined state

I don't know how you're reading my post? but yes, this is what I'm saying, almost any major app will be built with a framework, such as Lit. so I guess we agree? 🤷♂️😄

do you know how/if Lit deals with this issue?

I assume it must have either a non standard method to make atomic updates? or a means of deferring the actual DOM updates as a microtask?
either kind of breaks the DOM contract 😌

Rasmus Schultz on X: "@Rich_Harris @JivaLabs The biggest fundamental problem for me is updates can be made only to a single prop/attribute at a time. So going from: <number-input value="5" max="5"> To: <number-input value="10" max="10"> If value is set first, it'll be invalid until max is set." / X

scope and complexity about the same as Preact, which I would also consider a framework
I'd say Lit is a framework for building web components
we can quip over the definition of "framework", to me it mostly means that it prescribes how you build things
libraries do not prescribe, they just provide

"with Lit", yeah - unless you're looking to punish yourself, you're not building anything serious without a framework 😅

you can't say vibe coding anymore, it's offensive now
they want you to call them context engineers or some bull shit now, even if they never looked at a line of code
anything with "engineer" in it is preferred, and actual developers who do actual work are losers who are going to get "left behind"

superellipses and squircles both trigger me like crazy
I can't even say what it is exactly - both of those shapes just annoy me and make me think "what? why??"
they're just "wrong" somehow
I wouldn't use that shape for anything 🤷♂️
I know it's probably just me but 🙈😂

comments look like comments, so it's easy to understand they're comments
this will look like actual syntax, which will confuse new developers
apparently "code" that is just "there" but does nothing - essentially forcing JS devs to learn Typescript

this + good debugger & test runner
VS Code is still behind in many of these, esp. goto & refactoring, but it's free and "good enough" 🙂
