io.js - what you need to know

• io is a fork of node v0.12 (the next stable version of node.js, currently unreleased)
• io.js will be totally compatible with node.js
• the people who created io.js are node core contributors who have different ideas on how to run the project
• it is not a zero-sum game. many core contributors will help maintain both node.js and io.js

# first:

sudo rm -rf /usr/local/lib/node /usr/local/lib/node_modules /var/db/receipts/org.nodejs.*

# To recap, the best way (I've found) to completely uninstall node + npm is to do the following:

# go to /usr/local/lib and delete any node and node_modules
cd /usr/local/lib
sudo rm -rf node*

##what are generators##

• They're pausable functions, pausable iterable functions, to be more precise
• They're defined with the *
• every time you yield a value, the function pauses until .next(modifiedYieldValue) is called

var myGen = function*() {
  var one = yield 1;
  var two = yield 2;
  var three = yield 3;
 console.log(one, two, three);

// Minimal FRP Behaviors and Events.

// An event function is any function of shape `function (next) { ... }` where
// `next(value)` is a callback to be called by event function. Transformations
// of event are accomplished by wrapping event with another event function,
// and consuming original event within (CPS).

// A behavior is any function of shape `function (time) { ... }`, where
// `time` is current time. Behaviors may capture state, return value from time,
// or be constant. Behaviors must always return a value, but value may

Virtual DOM and diffing algorithm

There was a [great article][1] about how react implements it's virtual DOM. There are some really interesting ideas in there but they are deeply buried in the implementation of the React framework.

However, it's possible to implement just the virtual DOM and diff algorithm on it's own as a set of independent modules.

var extend = function(a, b) {
  for (var i in b)
    a[i] = b[i];
  return a;

var fluent = function(f) {
  return function() {
    var clone = extend(Object.create(null), this);
    f.apply(clone, arguments);
