double-conversion VS ewig

Compare double-conversion vs ewig and see what are their differences.

double-conversion

A fast Haskell library for converting between double precision floating point numbers and text strings. It is implemented as a binding to the V8-derived C++ double-conversion library. (by haskell)

ewig

    You might be interested in ewig and immer by Juan Pedro Bolivar Puente:

    See the author instantly opening a ~1GB text file with async loading, paging through, copying/pasting, and undoing/redoing in their prototype “ewig” text editor about 27 minutes into their talk here:

    https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=sPhpelUfu8Q

    It’s backed by a “vector of vectors” data structure called a relaxed radix balanced tree:

    That original paper has seen lots of attention and attempts at performance improvements, such as:

    Ewig is an interesting implementation using immutable data structures. https://github.com/arximboldi/ewig Very proof of concept, tries to be a little vi like. Might be worth checking out.

    For another approach: I built a didactic text editor to teach "value oriented design" and immutable data-structures in C++:

    It's design is covered in these talks:
