Intro

The below is a breakdown / bird's eye view of how a sparse-array backed ECS like EnTT or Shipyard works.

Please see the thanks and references at the bottom - without their help I would not have been able to share this breakdown with you... everything here is really just notes and rephrasing of what they've written already :)

Also, these notes do not cover archetype systems (like unity) nor adaptations of archetypes (like in Flecs). Though there's a couple comparative footnotes at the end.

Here we go!

Trello CSS Guide

“I perfectly understand our CSS. I never have any issues with cascading rules. I never have to use !important or inline styles. Even though somebody else wrote this bit of CSS, I know exactly how it works and how to extend it. Fixes are easy! I have a hard time breaking our CSS. I know exactly where to put new CSS. We use all of our CSS and it’s pretty small overall. When I delete a template, I know the exact corresponding CSS file and I can delete it all at once. Nothing gets left behind.”

You often hear updog saying stuff like this. Who’s updog? Not much, who is up with you?

This article has been given a more permanent home on my blog. Also, since it was first written, the development of the Promises/A+ specification has made the original emphasis on Promises/A seem somewhat outdated.

You're Missing the Point of Promises

Promises are a software abstraction that makes working with asynchronous operations much more pleasant. In the most basic definition, your code will move from continuation-passing style:

getTweetsFor("domenic", function (err, results) {
 // the rest of your code goes here.
