Karsten Schmidt<p>In recent years every spring seems to turn into a period of _massive_ refactoring & restructuring in <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/ThingUmbrella" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ThingUmbrella</span></a> — maybe it's a form of spring cleaning, even though the reasons[1] are not seasonal... Currently spending my nights reworking the <a href="https://thi.ng/vectors" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">thi.ng/vectors</span><span class="invisible"></span></a> package (likely one of the most comprehensive vector packages available for TS/JS) and trying out different splits/structures, testing their impact on package sizes and usability in existing downstream packages. Currently over 3000 source files with uncommitted changes... aaaarrrgghh! 🤯</p><p>Most functions (vector operations) in this package exist in multiple versions (many code generated, but now in need to be updated): Generic n-dimensional, loop-free, optimized 2D/3D/4D versions and strided versions for manipulating vectors views of larger nD data buffers (supporting all kinds of data layouts, incl. AOS, SOA, hybrid...)</p><p>[1] <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/@toxi/114296442006935718" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">mastodon.thi.ng/@toxi/11429644</span><span class="invisible">2006935718</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/ThingUmbrella" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ThingUmbrella</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/Vectors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Vectors</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/TypeScript" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TypeScript</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/JavaScript" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JavaScript</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/Refactoring" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Refactoring</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/OpenSource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OpenSource</span></a></p>
