Re: 2018 will be a momentous year for Leo

[Edward K. Ream]

It has *already *been a momentous year:

- We have a great new git workflow.  See branches.md for details. This 
picture 

 
summarizes the idea.

-  #770  summarizes 
the plans for making Leo's existing features more visible.

- Joe Orr continues to improve LeoVue.

- Vitalije has an ambitious plan (#768) 
 to greatly speed 
Leo's tree code.

And on and on. All in the last two weeks.

​Thanks for this.  This
was first item
when googling "python modules in rust". There were several others.

For most Rustaceans (heh), it would be much simpler to invoke Leo's bridge
module somehow.

#WoW thanx EKR for astute decide,
Leo's core base Python is very necessary,
and support others language for plugins develop is not hard for Python core.

​Thanks for this.  It came at the perfect time, when I was about to get
swept away by rust ;-)  This post
 shows
why rewriting Leo's core in rust would be a blunder.

Rust has some really nice ergonomics for dealing with data structures. The
possibility of interfacing with Python to implement core data functions in
a faster and safer way is very interesting. Looks like I'll be reading
about writing Python modules in Rust.

I agree Leo's data structure is one of its greatest assets.  Not sure
about the minibuffer commands.  I guess vs. any environment that
doesn't support anything similar, they're a major asset.

I think is some ways the issue is not so much web ui vs. Qt UI, but
Python vs. not Python.  Python is easily the dominant language in the
domains I work in most, so not Python options aren't super interesting
to me.
https://madnight.github.io/githut/#/pull_requests/2017/4

Re-writing Leo's core is an interesting idea.  I think there are some
great opportunities for clarifying the boundaries between the node
storage backend, and the outline representation, and outline
manipulators, and the gui.  I'm not saying those boundaries don't
exist, but I think they could be easier to see, leading to the
possibility of interchanging parts more freely.

But my Python bias remains.

I have just written this

a possible py2rust.py script.

The list of non-essentials should include the code that reads/writes .leo 
files.

Joe Orr has already translated (part of?) this code into javascript.  See 
leovue/src/services/leo.js.
