  • Preact Signals
    17 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 6 Sep 2022
    These are difficult to understand concepts imo. I have written an annotated implementation of a simple reactive system (you may want to run it through Prettier if that's your thing): https://github.com/fabiospampinato/flimsy/blob/master/src/fl...

    A signal is basically a function that you have to go through to read and write a value. In the case of Preact the function is split into getter and setter assigned to the "value" property. The interesting thing about signals is that they can tell their parent computation to re-execute, automatically, without any manual dependency array.

    A computed is a signal generated from a function rather than a primitive. So like the function that generates the value is re-executed automatically whenever any of the signals read inside it change.

    The reactivity core, which is in https://github.com/solidjs/solid This is where you'll see the reactivity runtime implementation. Take note that Solid's reactivity doesn't rely on compile-time magic
  • Are there any go backends that work with solid?
    1 project | /r/solidjs | 14 Apr 2023
    I did try this but I'm not sure what you mean with the ssrLoadFrom. Is there any documentation on this, all I could find was the examples folder in solidjs: solid-ssr?
  • Solid JS compared to svelte?
    2 projects | /r/solidjs | 17 Mar 2023
    This is very true. I really hate svelte single file components. But then I tried JSX for breaking things down. I love solid but I don't feel really good about angle brackets within C style syntax. I saw this Scala library that stick with simple statically typed function syntax than html tags. I don't understand why people still wants to stick with xml like tags. In laminar markup is written like this scala div( h1("Hello world", color := "red"), inputCaption, input(inputMods, name := "fullName"), div( ">>", button("Submit"), "<<" ) ) I wish solid team makes their HyperScript syntax as performant as JSX.

  • Proposal for separation of concerns and immutable state
    1 project | /r/solidjs | 26 Jan 2023
    I basically came up with an idea that is much like flutter's bloc pattern, and probably waht ryansolid was referring to in his reply to this issue when he said he made his own version of redux that codifies state changes instead of immutable state.
