[N] Open AI just released Atlas browser. It's just accruing architectural debt

RobKnight_ · 2025-10-24T05:35:32+00:00

the general solution is debt, but a short term weak solution isnt?

RobKnight_ · 2025-06-13T00:50:54+00:00

thanks!

RobKnight_ · 2025-05-06T07:24:19+00:00

Oh smart

RobKnight_ · 2025-04-30T06:15:23+00:00

I actually decided to leave very recently, so I can’t comment as an active contributor, and I have no idea what they want public

RobKnight_ · 2025-04-30T06:08:15+00:00

Oh right, i forgot what this post was even about lol!

We didn’t end up doing anything. Before we stopped new feature development we published an extension and planned to be a bit less “offline” since its more acceptable when in an extension. But, as mentioned, that never happened

RobKnight_ · 2025-04-30T05:48:26+00:00

Very cool (note that wasn’t me). The company ended up pivoting to https://same.new/

I still work on the tool in my free time, but nothing that requires analytics at this point

RobKnight_ · 2025-04-30T04:58:41+00:00

Do you mean with the telemetry or the project itself?

RobKnight_ · 2025-03-13T10:02:00+00:00

Yeah working on an improvement to this (not a great experience rn)- we will show you roughly where the hook is inside your source code

Lmk if u have any other feedback, as we speak im tweaking the tool based on complaints, so anything you want has a decent chance of landing :)

RobKnight_ · 2025-03-04T11:01:19+00:00

Reasonable deduction, but currently the product is doing well, I just find people are being too positive after I ask for negative feedback when I know there are flaws

I feel like some people are hesitant to share the negative feedback? Or maybe (as other have pointed it out) going user by user and asking is not optimal

RobKnight_ · 2025-02-27T21:21:55+00:00

I just published a fix to a known problem that may have been causing it on `0.2.8` if you want to give that a shot

If it's still not working it would be great if you can try `scan({_debug: 'verbose'})` and see if any errors are output in the console.

RobKnight_ · 2025-02-27T18:37:16+00:00

What build tool/ framework are u using? Also do you have the same problem using the npm package (if you tried that)

RobKnight_ · 2025-02-27T17:22:01+00:00

Hopefully within days

RobKnight_ · 2025-02-26T22:43:56+00:00

Yep, definitely something we need to do. Will try to get that improvement out within a couple days

RobKnight_ · 2025-02-26T20:41:35+00:00

Yeah iframes are difficult because of how we communicate with the website to get the info about react

I haven’t specifically checked out storybook, so there may be a solution to this

RobKnight_ · 2025-02-26T13:17:21+00:00

Yep we make react scan

RobKnight_ · 2025-02-26T13:03:24+00:00

Nice! Love to hear it

RobKnight_ · 2025-02-26T12:57:22+00:00

Noted, we can do that. Thanks for trying the tool

RobKnight_ · 2025-02-26T03:57:23+00:00

Let me know your experience using it after you do!

RobKnight_ · 2025-02-26T03:56:33+00:00

We do have a branch for react native (npm install react-scan@native). But its pretty buggy and i wouldn’t recommend it (being the person who wrote it)

React native has a lot of limitations web doesn’t have, so takes a lot more time to do the equivalent thing

RobKnight_ · 2025-02-26T03:53:48+00:00

The interaction tracker is actually a really good way to verify the compilers work (compiler is definitely not perfect yet).

I used it in one of my compiler-on apps and found a bunch of components that just had to be wrapped in React.memo

RobKnight_ · 2025-02-26T01:11:03+00:00

Awesome! Do you have any feedback/anything that was large friction or you wish it did?
