i made a declarative UI toolkit that uses the builder pattern with zero-cost diffing abstractions and it just flies with whatever i can give it, afaik it's faster than most UI toolkits now and i haven't even added memoization or reactivity yet!!

i can say that because i am doing the good software, making a display server in rust which communicates over dedicated unix socket for the 3D space/interaction/rendering protocol and d-bus for app to app object-based interaction

like there's a totally new 3D art medium (not meshes) I invented tooling for. the amount of translucent layering and complexity in your art is far beyond what i've seen others do in 3D, i haven't found a better person who could use that medium to its fullest
