Just venting here, but having used more templating languages than I care to remember (Jinja2, ERB, FTL, XSLT, JSX, Handlebars, etc), I find Hyperscript utterly horrid to work with. In no particular order, the things it breaks include: Code portability (can’t copy/paste html snippets without runni…

Discourse is from 2013 , we started complaining about Android performance in 2015 , added virtual-dom in 2016 , and Glimmer was announced in 2017 and it’s being actively integrated into Ember .

I see. That timeline helps – thanks! So, I suppose the easiest course would be to wait until Glimmer performance is equivalent to virtual-dom, then dump it and revert to pure Ember?

That feature is cool, but I’m having some trouble getting it to work. I’ve require'd discourse/widgets/hbs-compiler, but I still get error: hbs is not a function [29] Any idea why? I’m on 2.4.0beta5, and using theme-cli, if that helps.

I tried using templates within widgets but found it was of limited use without apparent support for helpers?: [immagine] Using a hbs file as the template for widget dev Related: Does this support helpers?, e.g.: <td style={{border-color c.color}}> Because I can’t g…

Yeah, sadly, I think trying to use handlebars instead of hyperscript is currently more trouble than it’s worth.

We have some current brainstorming on how to rationalize our templating systems. I will dig into this and make you an answer to your specific issue in the next days.

Cool – thanks :slight_smile: I’d be happy to be part of that discussion and/or find other ways to pitch in :slight_smile:

There s no real discussion of WHAT we want to do, we want full hbs. The question is more: is perf good enough now? how do we transition existing to this?

Aah… ok. Yeah. The transition could be a bit thorny. In principle, we could build the reverse equivalent of html2hyperscript, but in practice, most hyperscript is likely to be so intertwined with the widget’s js, that it could quickly become a nightmare. I suppose the simplest solution is to retai…

FYI I released a component few days ago which started as an example of what you can achieve with widgets and hbs:

Code is not perfect but you might learn a few things reading it.
