# haxe-ui
  • b
    so if you 
    -D haxeui_no_theme
    then it will automatically exclude all the png / css files (from core) so you dont have to care how (or have a user module)
  • b
    so its perfectly feasible, just need to generate an xsd on the fly
  • r
    First compile after pulling changes I'd made on another PC displayed properly, so I guess this works...!
  • r
    now if I can just figure out how to make hashlink not error while connecting to the debugger on first compile, I'll be sitting pretty...!
  • r
    Is there a 'reactive' way to connect a haxe var to a component's value at runtime? EG I want to pass an instance of a class to a components constructor, and then that component will update its value based on a property of the instance, and the instance will have its property updated based on user input to the component. The equivalent of something like
    Copy code
    haxe
<MyComp value={props.user.username} onChange={e=>props.user.setUsername(e.target.value)} />
    in React
  • r
    (I think @:Bind does this at compile time? But only for properties of the component, no?)
  • r
    I guess I could do literally that with hscript...
  • b
    nothing like that im afraid, you can use coconut-haxeui, but im certainly no expert in any of that tbh
  • r
    Ah coconut does look interesting.. Might have a look at how easy it is to set up with haxeui.
  • b
    hello
  • b
    @bright-gpu-74537 is the java/desktop (ie. non-android) language supported by haxeui and which backend would be the one to use ?
  • b
    there isnt, ive played with a SWING backend and a javafx backend... but they we just "toys" and nothing serious came out of them
  • b
    writing a new backend is a fair amount of work (and maintenance) so there has to e a pretty good reason to add another one
  • b
    understandable ... i was just asking from a cross-platform/-backend point of view
  • b
  • b
    i dont even know where that test project is now 😄
  • b
    i have been toying with libgdx under java (without haxe) some time ago
  • b
    tbh, looking at that gif now, i do like it
  • b
    i dont really know what haxeui-libgdx would bring to the table that other backends dont?
  • b
    it would also be an easier backend to write to be fair, as it would be composite, and they tend to be simple(r)...
  • b
    haxeui-javafx would have been a "native" (native to the framework) backend, and they are always more complex
  • b
    yah ... haxeui-libgdx would be kinda niché ... not scratching the itch of a lot of people
  • b
    yeah, agreed
  • b
    especially as a desktop thingy ... seems that most use libgdx on Mobile or GWT/html5
  • b
    gotcha, im not opposed to new backends. But considering the maintenance cost, they have to be "worth it" otherwise they just fade into insignificance
  • p
    > they have to be "worth it" otherwise they just fade into insignificance looks at the Raylib backend Was it worth it? Not saying a Raylib backend isn't cool, but it doesn't seem particularly useful over let's say haxeui-kha
  • b
    i think thats fair... for me, raylib was just something i liked and wanted to "see" if it could be done
  • b
    and it turned into a full backend pretty fast
  • b
    i would agree that its probably got zero users (except me, and i dont "use" it)
  • b
    it scratched your itch ... you learned from it ... so in the end there was positive experience ?
