/*
* Generates a geodesic sphere geometry
* By default, it is 1x1x1 octahedron, as a first approximation to sphere
* It will return more sphere-like object if you specify iterations > 0
* But please keep in mind that it generates (4 ^ iterations) * 8 faces
* Radius argument overrides default sphere radius (1)

What forces layout/reflow. The comprehensive list.

What forces layout / reflow

All of the below properties or methods, when requested/called in JavaScript, will trigger the browser to synchronously calculate the style and layout*. This is also called reflow or layout thrashing, and is common performance bottleneck.

Generally, all APIs that synchronously provide layout metrics will trigger forced reflow / layout. Read on for additional cases and details.

Element APIs

Getting box metrics
  • elem.offsetLeft, elem.offsetTop, elem.offsetWidth, elem.offsetHeight, elem.offsetParent

Breakdown of How Require Extensions Work

Why

Doing require extensions correctly is essential, because:

  1. Users should be able to install multiple extensions in succession, and have them work together.
  2. Coverage tools like nyc need it to reliably supply coverage information that takes into account sourcemaps from upstream transforms.
  3. Because non-standard, un-predictable behavior causes hard to solve bugs, and major headaches for project maintainers.

What is a require extension anyways?
