Haxe

no worries, this all still for that game? Anything fun to see yet?

or maybe this whole item renderer thingy can be implemented on a virtual dom level (e.g. coconut) like this: https://github.com/bvaughn/react-window

ahh not yet, I have been writing a game database editor (castledb-alike) recently

gotcha... what backend(s)? Still via coconut?

I will try kha if heaps doesn't fit my needs (haven't evaluated heaps deep enough for now)

still pretty cool stack.. heaps, coconut and haxeui 🙂

<@!385014891750096896> wow is this the power of Haxe ui? I've never seen it before. Are there any other examples available?

thats all haxeui, yeah, with a different theme (kenney-ui theme)

https://github.com/haxeui/component-examples

you can take the "kitchen-sink" example (which is from the gif) for a spin here: http://haxeui.org/shared/kenney-theme/

thats haxeui-html ofc, but looks / works the same on the others that ive tested too (openfl, kha .... )

Since it works with openfl does that mean it can be integrated with flixel? I would love to have a MenuState with haxeui's interface and responsiveness

i feel like the flixel backend _may_ need some love, im not entirely sure but i feel like development may have stalled on it, but the default theme uses slice-9 (to make it look like flixel-ui) so its good to know that the kenney theme will likely work

😬 completely rewriting a base class is a commitment

It should be ok in general? I’ve used it for a while. But things like substates or maybe even switching states won’t work with it

Thanks for the great info everyone, I might play around with flixel backend however it scares me a bit that some things don't exactly work 😅

<@!449643423302025248> To be clear, no-one confirmed that it doesn't work :p

<@!151104106973495296> yeah I know it works, but I wouldn't know how to handle switching states since <@!126172290667773952> said that substates and switching states won't work

So they work, but the mouse hit boxes will stick around after transition

So your buttons from before will ghost on top of your new layout

You can get around it, it’s just annoying and not the intended way of working

oohh ok, so it's not so bad after all, thanks for letting me know
