Show HN: Dropflow, a CSS layout engine for node or <canvas>
> wondering if css and svg could be used as abstraction over graphics and UI libraries
There's another project called Sciter that uses CSS to target native graphics libraries: https://sciter.com
> I wonder how hard it was to implement css. I've heard it can be pretty complex.
It was hard, but the biggest barrier is the obscurity of the knowledge.
Text layout is the hardest, because working with glyphs and iterating them in reverse for RTL is brain-breaking. And line wrapping gets really complicated. It's also the most obscure because nobody has written down everything you need to know in one place. After I finished block layout early on, I had to stop for a couple of years (only working a few hours a week though) and learn all of the ins, outs, dos, and don'ts around shaping and itemizing text. A lot of that I learned by reading Pango's [1] source code, and a lot I pieced together from Google searches.
But other than that, the W3C specifications cover almost everything. The CSS2 standard [2] is one of the most beautiful things I've ever read. It's internally consistent, concise, and obviously the result of years of deliberation, trial and error. (CSS3 is great, but CSS2 is the bedrock for everything).

otherwise, if we have only retained mode as in browsers, we will need to modify the DOM heavily and create temporary elements for handles.

So you want to write a GUI framework (2021)
These bullet points are exactly what I did in Sciter (https://sciter.com)
- Windowing
-- Tabs
-- Menus
-- Painting
-- Animation
-- Text
-The compositor
-Handling input
-- Pointer input
-- Keyboard input
- Accessibility
- Internationalization and localization
- Cross-platform APIs
- The web view
- Native look and feel
On top of that DOM and CSS implementations to achieve declarative UI. And JS as a languuage behind UI - declarative in some sense way of defining UI behavior.

Servo, the parallel browser engine written in Rust
I'm not sure if it can support all the libraries but yes it can be used to make desktop apps. Theres also Sciter.

Copilot: Weapon For Laid Back Developers
In my example I am using Redux Toolkit and I got a prompt for actions to login and logout the user. If I need more functions, I can simply start typing the name, and Copilot provides the completion. For instance, in the example, I'm adding a function to update the user. And of course at the end of the file it suggests the exports.

Redux Toolkit 2.0

This Month in React Nov 2023 – Redux Toolkit 2.0, Kent v Lee, Prettier bounty
Redux Toolkit 2.0 is almost here! Hopefully shipping by this weekend :) Migration page
- Redux Toolkit 2.0: new features, faster perf, smaller bundle sizes (plus major versions for all Redux family packages!)
-
Redux Toolkit 2.0: new features, faster perf, smaller bundle sizes, and more
I am _thrilled_ to announce that:
Redux Toolkit 2.0 is LIVE!!!
- https://github.com/reduxjs/redux-toolkit/releases/tag/v2.0.0
This major version has new features, faster perf, smaller bundle size, and removes deprecated options.
It's accompanied by majors for all our Redux family packages
## RTK 2.0:
- a new `combineSlices` method for lazy-loading reducers - Updates to `createSlice` to include a `selectors` field and allow defining thunks inside
- Immer 10 w/ faster updates
- Removal of deprecated options
See the migration guide:
- https://redux.js.org/usage/migrations/migrating-rtk-2
All of the Redux libraries now have modernized packaging with full ESM/CJS compat. They also ship modern JS (no transpiling for IE11), which means smaller bundle sizes.
We've also done byte-shaving work to shrink the bundles (extracting error messages, de-duping imports)
## Redux core 5.0:
- The TS conversion we did in 2019!
- Action types _must_ be strings
- `UnknownAction` as the default action type
- Better preloaded state types
- Internal subscription improvements
- Still marks `createStore` as deprecated!
- https://github.com/reduxjs/redux/releases/tag/v5.0.0
## React-Redux 9.0:
- *Now requires React 18 and RTK 2.0 / Redux 5.0*

Blogged Answers: My Experience Modernizing Packages to ESM
Oh hey, that's my post!
(yes I spend too much time refreshing HN :) )
FWIW I did end up with a packaging combination that seems to work sufficiently. I never did fix the "FalseCJS" issue that `are-the-types-wrong` is detecting. I played with double-emitting TS typedefs, and the `tsup` tool _does_ actually have support for that now (added by Andrew Branch from the TS team). So it might be more feasible now. But ultimately I decided I was tired of messing with packaging setup and that what I've got is good enough. (hopefully)
We're actually about to launch Redux Toolkit 2.0 and Redux 5.0 this week, assuming the last couple pieces come together. Here's the latest RCs - you can see the current `package.json` files in there:

Setting up Redux Persist with Redux Toolkit in React JS
However, Redux, or pure Redux to be specific, can be quite verbose and boilerplate-heavy. It requires a significantly lengthy setup, which is where Redux Toolkit comes in handy, offering a simplified and more efficient way to set up and manage state in your React applications.

44 React Frontend Interview Questions
State manager is a tool or library that helps manage the state of an application. It provides a centralized store or container for storing and managing data that can be accessed and updated by different components in the application. A state manager solves several problems. Firstly, it is a good practice to separate data and the logic related to it from components. Secondly, when using local state and passing it between components, the code can become convoluted due to the potential for deep nesting of components. By having a global store, we can access and modify data from any component. Alongside React Context, Redux or MobX are commonly used as state management libraries. Learn more Learn more
