hippo VS yeoman

You may laugh, but a few years ago all those guys who sold us (some of? us - me anyway) on Kubernetes evidently got bored with it, and now they're all building a Hippo Factory[1]. And it's actually really good. This is the current timeline!

WebAssembly (Wasm) is something that the Cloud Native Advocacy team has been exploring. It has been around for a few years and has mostly been used within browser-based applications. There are many blog posts on what makes WebAssembly an ideal target for running applications (e.g., smaller footprint with .wasm files compared to containers, code isolation, and sandboxing). My colleague Steven Murawski wrote a blog series on getting started with hosting Wasm apps on an emerging PaaS platform called Hippo which is developed by folks at Fermyon. In Part 1 of the series, he introduces topics and define some of the acronyms like "Wagi" and "WASI". He also introduced a runtime called Wasmtime which implements the WebAssembly System Interface (WASI) standard. This article will walk you through how Steven and I went about getting a .NET console app running as a Wasm app on the Wasmtime runtime in a Dev Container. The .NET console app produced in this article has also been contributed as a csharp template in the yo-wasm repo which is also maintained by Fermyon; so you can quickly test it out for yourself later.

Drag and Drop Visual Programming Language, the click of a button is interpreted as a source of an object stream. Think packet oriented programming, of reactive functional programming, or RxJs, or Node-RED.

To answer your question: you evaluate a low-code builder by the ease with which it can generate entire website applications. And by generate, I mean code generation as well, because you want these programs to emit beautiful code that is indistinguishable from hand made code. For code generation see yeoman, especially AST parsing and that nifty var function: https://yeoman.io/

And of course any one of the 5 above is a good test, but all 5 in harmony are better.

As to non-visual/tui tools, its bash. shells are low code tools take a look:

Plop js actually allows us to create the structures that we have previously created templates on cli via command. It does this in a very simple way. I can give hygen and yeoman as an alternative to plop js. I plan to write content about these libraries in the future.

You use them to install Yeoman and the VS Code Extension Generator. This generator creates a frame (scaffold) for your extension so you don't have to write everything from scratch. If you elect to build your project using TypeScript (recommended for this blog), it's recommended that you install the TypeScript + Webpack Problem Matcher to make it easier to find and match coding errors.

Nice, reminds me of https://yeoman.io/ which was popular couple years ago

Before we can start building the extension, we need to gather and prepare the necessary tools. In this case, the needed tools are node, git, yeoman and generator-code. For a newcomer like myself, this basic tutorial is perfect. I recommend going through it to learn the fundamentals.

If you wanted something much more advanced for some actual syntax highlighting and not just word highlighting, you can you use the built-in tools to create your own language syntax highlighter. You can define words, expressions, and grammar that gets formatted and colored and more across a specific type of file (you could enable it for .txt files if you really wanted to). You'd want to install Yeoman and the VScode Extension Generator.

Maybe recheck the name ? https://www.npmjs.com/package/yo https://yeoman.io/

If you are wondering about performance cost please take a look here, especially the last comment. https://github.com/yeoman/yeoman/issues/810 . With the advent of http2 and http3 the tcp connection is never reset and in http 3 the browser can always stop and resume the image loading without throwing the current progress away. FB, Google, Shopify, Reddit and many others are all using webp which doesn't support progressive rendering and I am sure at their scale they have at least million site visits with slow network and they are doing fine.
