reactively VS signals

But what if the vertices change? What if the user changes the shape and number of the tiles while the video is playing? In that case, we will need to update the buffer. Reactively can handle that situation automatically. Reactively tracks dependencies and will re-execute the body of the getter if the dependencies change, vertexBuffer will create a new GPUBuffer as required. In this case, shapeVerts might change if the user changes the size and shape of the mosaic tiles in the control panel and then it would be appropriate to rebuild the GPUBuffer for new vertices for the next rendered frame.

Adding on to Ryan's comment, Reactively actually does have an object oriented syntax using typescript decorators that is built around the core library

Reactivity libraries are at the heart of modern web component frameworks like Solid, Qwik, Vue, and Svelte. And in some cases you can add fine-grained reactive state management to other libraries like Lit and React. Reactively comes with a decorator for adding reactive properties to any class, as well as prototype integration with Lit. Preact Signals comes with a prototype integration with React. Expect more integrations as these reactivity cores mature.

Putting the runic terminology aside and looking into how the signal primitive is implemented should dispel the magic. I learned a lot from examining preact's implementation: https://github.com/preactjs/signals/blob/main/packages/core/...

All the frameworks are starting to adapt them. You can easily add them to react project as well. https://preactjs.com/blog/introducing-signals/

Signals are a design paradigm for reactive programming which have recently trended in the JS frontend space. For e.g., https://preactjs.com/blog/introducing-signals/

Compare Vue's reactivity system to the principles the Preact authors write about here:

State solution should not be a framework, this is what I dislike in riverpod as well.. its a FRAMEWORK... compare to the simple useSignal hook that preact has https://preactjs.com/blog/introducing-signals/ this looks like an overkill.

Looks like it's coming from here https://preactjs.com/blog/introducing-signals

Sciter got native (built-in) Signal implementation made after PReact's Signals;
