asciinema-player VS mobx-jsx

The player is still in SolidJS.

The Rust frontend frameworks have been creeping up the perf charts, though.

You can record and play cast files offline easily. You can also embed an asciinema js player on your own site to play casts.

Feel free to report a bug here https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema-player/issues/new (including browser version, OS would help a lot).

Btw, it's not a product, just a side, hobby project of mine.

Take a look at https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema-player

Sure, you can use JSX without a framework! Be it MobX JSX, dom-chef or jsx-dom, it should feel right at home.

mobx-jsx is using MobX as the reactivity system together with Solid's DOM renderer.

I've just skimmed the article but I'm definitely going to give it a proper read.

We've built an architecture somewhat like this where we're using MobX objects in the frontend (a graph of the db objects effectively) that's patched by subscriptions to tables via hasura. So we effectively have all the data on hand locally all the time and use the reactivity on top of that.

We actually played around with sqlite in wasm because I really really miss having a real relational db in the frontend. We decided that there was just a few too many unknowns to proceed further with the idea. Initially we were using indexdb as a frontend cache but dropped that since without adding more layers to it it doesn't provide much value.

(Also played around with using Solid's direct mobx -> jsx library without having react inbetween https://github.com/ryansolid/mobx-jsx but, again, too much unproven tech to build on).

The work you're doing here is super exciting. The developer experience of what we currently have is pretty nice and I can definitely see your model working out well in the future.

I've been keeping an eye on your work for a long time now. We're a mobx shop so I was hoping to see you explore the ideas you had around that a little more (https://github.com/ryansolid/mobx-jsx).

I like and know where I'm at with React, but bringing a beginner through it recently definitely made me re-appreciate how nuanced it is. Also, you have to do a bit of voodoo to get good performance, and when you do the intention of the code vanishes pretty quickly.

For someone using React on top and mobx stores in the background (50k LOC), how big of a task would you say it is to move to something like Solid?
