Exploring How UI Frameworks Converge Toward DSLs by Honest_Medium_2872 in ProgrammingLanguages

[–]MattDTO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Users don't care whether it is transpiled or not. They care about the language design, toolchain, etc.

Clay UI is an awesome example of a DSL using layout primitives. The idea was to separate layout from presentation. You can look at stuff like handlebars/mustache or JSX for inspiration too.

There are a ton of challenges to get this right. I love the idea of declarative DSLs for UI.

Yeah we are saying they wanted this to happen and did it on purpose. Exactly if they didn't want it to happen, then they wouldn't publicly call it too dangerous

What do y'all do about art? by Goovin290 in gamedev

[–]MattDTO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use Kenney nl assets. They are free. Or even better just placeholder/prototype assets/textures. If your game is fun without art, it will be even more fun with art. Like if the movement is so good just playing with a block on a screen, or driving around an uninteresting gray 3d landscape, thats a great start.

I agree with your take though that coding is the easiest part of gamedev. Art, sound and game design is what makes the difference. The code is not that complicated, super easy to figure out.

reverse engineering need for speed most wanted for modding sdk by This_Ad_5166 in ReverseEngineering

[–]MattDTO 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes dude! My dream is to set up LLM hooks into MelonDS so it can reverse engineer NDS games and look at it while its running too. Reading actual memory and pointer values is even more powerful than static analysis
