@th-ch?

[xhayper]

Might as well as use vite

Damn that's a gigantic assignment.

Might atleast double the amount of lines in this project...

[xhayper]

I manage to get it to work, we just need to add typing now.

[xhayper]

one big problem is plugins doesn't work correctly... hmm..

Migrating to ESM and TS would definitely be awesome, though it's indeed a lot of work 😅 The best way forward would probably be to introduce ts along js, then migrate file by file until everything is done

[xhayper]

Very good idea

[Araxeus]

I also propose that changes be merged on a separate experimental branch, to avoid breaking stuff for the end user
(which will probably happen)

Lmao, looks like xhayper gave up on this?

I am up for the task, although I don't have a lot of free time, so it may take a while :^)

[xhayper]

yeah i gave up on this, got another project going on, sorry.

Calling everyone interested in the typescript re-write to discuss over at my fork.

PS: If you actually run my fork, it won't run any plugins and such, that is because of an on-going issue I have with electron-vite, so I am focusing all my efforts on the type system until that issue is fixed.

[ArjixWasTaken]

@th-ch maybe pin this issue?

that way more people would see it and join in on the effort
