Thanks Alex,
thanks for the explanation, just to understand what's behind.... I remember
that initially the way some components translates to JS was using a js file
as a templete (so some code was transpired and some other not). AFAIR this
was removed and now all is converted to JS, and now is inside of code. For
example in js:Container line 89: element = document.createElement('div') as
WrappedHTMLElement;
And js:Container is not in "Core" and is in "HTML" since is dependent of
the what you want to output, (as it's a version in CreateJS and others).
Is this right?
regarding Flat.swc you mentioned, I was not aware of it. I check the
library, but don't know if there's some project using it as an example. Is
there some of it?
Thanks
Carlos
