For the past few months, @pierrecomputer has been working on a brand new primitive, Trees. Just like Diffs, it’s an incredibly fast, modern, and beautiful library for rendering lists of files and folders.

@pandemona @umang @instagram I've had so many password reset attempts in the past for my account. Lately it's been login attempts and I end up signed out on my own phone. Got an email that my support request was paused due to inactivity. I never did that. Scares the shit out of me. Big wtf, @instagram.

➽ Technical post from @amadeus on how Diffs is so damned fast, why we had to build the new CodeView component, and more. https://t.co/YopN9QzrvD

Had a lot of fun playing with Unicode characters for the "illustrations"!

(Also, who's working on WebKit? Let's make it better!)

Full send to end the week—zero blanking while scrolling and switching between a few dozen themes every second.

https://t.co/WrAtEqXtmJ, now with themes. Shoutout @amadeus and @necolas.

Celebrate Friday with our new Party Mode. We started by adding theme support, then thought, what if you could browse themes like you browse diffs, and at the same time, and just as fast?

try it with your fav public diff (shift + click to change speeds)

@Mappletons @JohnThilen @joshuaday @brian_lovin Omfg, what a joke. Sorry Maggie, it's a great talk and Ace looks rad! Anyone who gives you shit is a clown.

This is how performant PR review could be. On any forge. Pierre is showing us that the only thing holding that back is a skill issue. Excellent ship here! They’re on fire!

[Mark Otto @mdo]

@spikebrehm Ya! File vs FileDiff, two different but related components. CodeView supports rendering both.

[Mark Otto @mdo]

Ayyy go have some fun with https://t.co/WrAtEqXtmJ, a crispy clean demo app showing off our new CodeView component for rendering millions of lines of changes with all the fixings—virtualization, streaming, scrolling, annotating, and more. Just replace `github` with `diffshub`.

[Pierre @pierrecomputer]

Take any public diff from GitHub and virtualize it nearly instantly, no matter how large, with DiffsHub. Built to show off our brand new CodeView component.

To try it out, replace `github` with `diffshub` in your address bar.

[Mark Otto @mdo]

@eduwass @dan_j_ford Yeah, we'll be open sourcing the CodeView component, which is responsible for managing the virtualization, scrolling, rendering, etc for that many File/FileDiff components.

[Mark Otto @mdo]

100M lines of diffed code in 200K files (we've done millions fwiw), all rendered in the browser with the smoothest scroll performance.

Built with https://t.co/FK0biYahJD and https://t.co/nr5toR1e3V—and yes, coming soon as a demo app where anyone can view any GitHub diff.

[Jacob @fat]

We were curious what rendering Bun's rust rewrite would look like if we used our JS based diffs and trees.

It worked pretty well, so we added a slider to 100x it.

Still works well.

100m+ changed lines in a browser.

@shadcn People hated Bootstrap for taking this same stance 15 years ago. "Everything looks the same", sure, but that's usually an exaggeration. Plenty of nuance in most things. And even if there isn't, design libraries like ours still help people make things better/faster/easier.

[Mark Otto @mdo]

I love it, I'll take it in Space Black.

[Mark Otto @mdo]

Is there anyway to get additional environments on @vercel without making the jump from Pro to Enterprise? We have a single app we split publish to multiple sites and that's our key to adding another site (it's a good one, I promise!). Wondering if I'm missing something.

"Why are you guys obsessively making super performant git infrastructure?"

for him...

[Tanvesh Sarve @Sarve___tanvesh]

i never liked github's PR review ux

so i built an app for myself : )
open sourcing it now. it has a cute little name rudu 🙃

built with @pierrecomputer diffs and trees

@ephraimduncan Yesssssss looking great!

In the next version of trees, expand/collapse on massive datasets gets 95% faster. (sorry it was bad)

[Mark Otto @mdo]

Thanks everyone for the love with the launch of https://t.co/nr5toR1e3V today! It was a ton of fun to design and build this alongside @SlexAxton and the rest of @pierrecomputer. Excited to keep improving Trees and Diffs, so let us know what you think!

@Neesh774 @fat what do you say we double it, brother?
