GitFiend

Vscode can easily do 144fps while scrolling on a Mac, but it feels much worse due to what appears to be Chromiums broken frame timing (This has bugged me for years working on GitFiend):

Dammit, I think I just (re?) invented a better JS UI framework. Something that can render lots of components at 120fps and doesn’t use any clever state update/effect abstractions.

GitFiend 0.38.3 is out and fixes some annoying bugs: gitfiend.com/releases. The Rust docs did try to warn me about deadlocks 😅

GitFiend 0.34 is out with a fix for confusing pull behaviour: gitfiend.com/releases

@neoeinstein Thanks, I will try it. Just been learning the bare minimum so I can pick between the 2 languages for a project. This destructuring looks quite different to what I’m used to.

I just ported 1350 lines of Go to 25 lines of Rust (using a #rustlang macro) with a 4x perf improvement 🤯. I’m new to both languages, and not to bash Go, this is a corner case where I needed a function with any of 1-15 arguments with variable types.

Just released GitFiend 0.32. It's significantly faster at loading repos than 0.31. gitfiend.com/releases

GitFiend finally has a commit graph! There's also a new Mac app for Apple silicon and other improvements: gitfiend.com/releases

GitFiend 0.29 lets you filter the commit list by username or branch. gitfiend.com/releases

Just released GitFiend 0.28 with bug fixes. Thanks to Rust and Wasm, I was able to speed up a diff performance issue by around 300x (~90s down to ~300ms). gitfiend.com/releases

@chekobil Sorry to hear. I’ve added a link to the previous version on your GitHub issue.

GitFiend 0.27 is out. Details: gitfiend.com/releases

Running some experiments to see if a commit graph will work in GitFiend. What do you think?

This isn't the first time I've found adding some types, removing typical JavaScript strangeness and tweaking data structures in someone else's code has sped it up a lot:

Excited about the next release. Stopped relying on hover to reveal buttons/branches. A better staging UI that was unreasonably difficult to implement, but makes a lot more sense.

🔥 Best free linux/crossplatform git gui I've found.

Открыл для себя @GitFiend для #linux с целью контроля версий #git проектов на #gitlab. Удобный и простой интерфейс для пользования. Рекомендую попробовать PM'ам и веб разработчикам. Скачать можно тут: gitfiend.com

I'm on the fence whether JSX is worth it. In my experimental React replacement I'm finding it's nice to use plain objects instead of attribute={} and //comments instead of {/* */}. #reactjs #TypeScript #javascript

I overlooked how awesome the ReadOnly<T> feature in TypeScript is until recently. I think it gels perfectly with shallow observables, preventing so many potential bugs. #TypeScript #MobX

@hediet_dev @Underline_API @typescript Yeah, React is designed to be kind to JavaScript developers. Any element could be dom, string, number, null, undefined or recursive array of those 🤯.

@GitFiend @Underline_API @typescript Yeah, you're right, I have the same impression that the types are rather complicated. But I think react is to blame here, not jsx, and mainly due to supporting all the html elements.

Experimenting with building my own type-safe JSX alternative. @typescript is pretty great:
