In the blog post it uses "600,000 divs/second!" and "10,000 divs using its template engine" while the heading uses 600.000.

I assume the difference in usage of full stop / period or comma is accidental?

Yes, you right hehe. I had fixed!

if only i could run django on cloudflare workers

guess i could run it on a dedicated server

would be nice if we can get django and liveview working without a server

you can do it on wasmer's workers, their last wasm/python approach is pretty solid (compatibility, performance). it's sad to say, but after 4 years of "beta" Python support on CF workers - it's still ugly. I dunno who was responsible for such a neglect, but even with the last changes - total fiasco

I wish we could host Django apps with the tasks and everything on Cloudflare workers. Also it would be nice to have a DB like SQLite within Cloudflare.

Shame Phoenix LiveView is missing from the comparison
leobuskin•1h ago
It's only django-related third-party packages comparison (and SSR itself), would be a bit strange to compare with a different language/stack and/or framework

Since Doom renders the image with vertical columns of pixels (floor, lower wall, portal if exists continues rendering the other sector, then upper wall then ceiling) and since browsers are very good at drawing the sprites out of larger textures... You could send vertical divs shaded with the sector light level and picking the correct textures. Instead of hundreds per column you will have like 5 divs on average per column and they will be textured shaded and scaled by the browser?

Very impressive! Worth noting that HTMX also has a WebSocket extension - https://v1.htmx.org/extensions/web-sockets/ so one could potentially also do "live views" in more performant runtimes like JVM or Node.js
