RethinkRAW VS fir

I created https://rethinkraw.com that hijacks Adobe DNG Converter to provide a very limited Adobe Camera RAW that can even run on Linux. Why? Because why not.

My pet project uses dcraw to extract thumbnails from RAW files.

I'm using it to embed dcraw in RethinkRAW, and I'm very happy with it and the community.

Wails 2 seems great. I need to have a another look at it for my pet project. I've used something closer to Lorca so far.

I did it with AppleScript (actually JXA, because I prefer JavaScript to AppleScript) for RethinkRAW.

I'm building RethinkRAW using some of the same concepts as Lorca. I don't use the DevTools protocol, it's a straight up HTTP server, because I also want to access it remotely (over the LAN).

Fir is an open source project, so if you are interested in contributing you can head over to their GitHub repository. You can also open an issue there if you encounter any problems you can’t solve on your own.

This example has most of the scenarios you have called out: https://github.com/livefir/fir/tree/main/examples/fira. Fir aims to limit itself to rendering templates on the server and making it available for all subscribers as a browser CustomEvent which is consumed by alpine.js for more complex interactivity. The expectation is the that the developer handles it via either alpine.js plugins or standard JS code.

I have been using this so called template fragments to in a reactive library for building web apps: https://github.com/livefir/fir It mostly works but still a work in progress

Been working on a html over the wire library in Go: https://github.com/livefir/fir. It mostly works but still work in progress

Then use something like Fir to keep JavaScript at a minimum.

I am building one. Still a work in progress: https://github.com/adnaan/fir
