asciinema2gif VS mobx-jsx

Is there some tool like this that you could recommend? I tried searching for one at one time for my project, assuming someone must have written something like that for the script command, but didn't seem to be able to find a reasonable one (or any? I don't recall). I ended up writing an ad hoc single use tool for gif-izing an asciinema transcript... (https://github.com/akavel/asciinema2gif)

Tangentially, Solid is fascinating - especially the dom-expressions backend meaning you can basically bolt compilation behaviour into anything that supports that.

I have https://github.com/ryansolid/mobx-jsx/?tab=readme-ov-file#mo... on my list to try since I -really- like mobx for stage management (especially mobx-keystone) and am fascinated by how clean the results can be.

Though for 'real' code I still tend to default to react + mobx-keystone because for all my gripes with react it's a pretty solid Schelling Point.

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?
