Annoyed by those huge JS libraries that always get in the way? Ready for something light, fast, atomic, open-source, cross-browser, free, and well-documented?

I do wish we had better tools for writing performance-critical JS code that didn't force us to optimize against the engine's quirks.

And, mostly this works quite well and saves us time. But sometimes it doesn't, and then we end up spending a bunch of time debugging.

Bottom line, instead of writing hand-optimized code we're handing off to a declarative rendering layer, relying on it to make good decisions

Why this is happening I'm not entirely clear, but I'd guess Chrome's rendering algorithm is simply behaving suboptimally for this animation.

However, by recording a Timeline in VS Code's Developer Tools, we can see that some style paint operation is still happening at 60fps.

This cursor should update twice a second. And in fact, there's exactly 2 frames per second coming out of the rendering pipeline (500ms).

The reason appears to not be the JavaScript itself. Rather, VS Code hands off the blinking to Chrome's rendering layer via CSS animations.

Yesterday I quipped that VS Code loses a bunch of CPU on blinking its cursor. I since investigated why this is... x.com/jo_liss/status/8438752…

The year is 2017. Desktop applications are written in JavaScript. Your CPU is busy rendering a blinking cursor. (With much ❤️ for VS Code.)

Idea: npm/yarn should make command to publish package under ur user scope without changing package.json so it's easy to get early release
