It's the kind of auroras right now where it just looks like a greenish smudge to your eyes, but then you take a photo and it's ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE Please enjoy this lovely instrument (a camera) that lets us see a bunch of colours too faint for our eyeballs!

A nighttime scene, with silhouetted trees in the lower corners of the photos, and bright green auroras across the horizon, with some pink and red pillars above, almost blocking the Milky Way, visible vertically across the sky.

Same idea as the previous photo, but now the green in the lower part of the sky is also reflected by a small pond.

More bright green auroras with red and pink pillars above, the Milky Way sticking up out of the middle, and a bit of green reflected in a small pond with silhouetted trees.

This is completely unsurprising and it's not a problem with the Neo alone. Any Windows machine with a small SSD has the same problem, and it boils down to two things: swap and log-like writes. The former issue is being exacerbated by poor coding and high resource usage, but the latter is really […]

I think this was when React was still pretending to be just a smol UI library and Redux was cool and the reasons for avoiding JSX were that it's non standard and needs extra build tools. Fair point about JSX, but even back then, using a heavy framework like React seemed silly to me.

#Firefox #devtools UI components are written in vanilla JS React - no JSX. The worst of both worlds 😟. I guess that's one of the reasons it feels sluggish. I still prefer it over Chrome because of reasons

Replacing the WebSocket with a unix socket, then using blocking Json-rpc instead of Vite's tangle of promise chains resolved the issue. If any #gnome/#gjs/#glib people know exactly what was going wrong I'd be delighted to hear!

Alright, I'm thoroughly confused. AsyncFunction probably isn't the problem. A repro that imports the built modules and creates an Application from an AsyncFunction run works fine The dev client code creates a ModuleRunner with a WebSocket to the dev server […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

And gjs does not like this AsyncFunction trick :(. It seems to fuck up the main loop context or something so I'm back to writing to temp files. I'm overloading the DevEnvironment.fetchModule method to mark all modules as external and replace the URL with `file://` urls to the transformed temp […]

So with Vite's Environment API, the ModuleRunner running in gjs fetches (in this case through a socket) imported modules, then the ESModulesEvaluator `eval`s them. This way, I don't need to copy all the application JS into the temp file. `environment.dev […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

The plugin works by - creating a tmp directory to write transformed js files to so that they could be improted with `file://` urls - copying and patching vite's dev client file to fit gjs rather than the browser - polyfilling WebSocket and fetch APIs in gjs Now, vite has a new Environment API […]

Thinking of updating and polishing up this Vite plugin for making GTK apps with Vue that I wrote way back, but with JSX and Adwaita. Then I could translate my browser based video editor into a #gnome app with #GStreamer instead of WebCodecs?

Vue single file component, but with `<Gtk:x>` tags instead of HTML elements.
