Earlier this year at work we re-wrote an internal framework we used to create SPA e-learning courses. After briefly trying out React, Angular 2, Ember and Vue, we settled on mithril (https://mithril.js.org). If I were to compare it to the frameworks we tried out, I would say it's more like React but with a simpler, smaller codebase. By the way, if you like geeking out on code articles, the articles from mithril's old site have some real nuggets of gold (http://lhorie.github.io/mithril-blog/).

A few months after the re-write was done, I dug into mithril's codebase to gain a deeper understanding and this is what I found...

The main entry point into mithril's source code is the m() function, which is a hyperscript function that, according to the docs (https://mithril.js.org/hyperscript.html), represents an element in a mithril view. It's demonstrated below as:

m("div", {id: "box"}, "hello")
// equivalent HTML:
// <div id="box">hello</div>

Step 1 - Make a Discord Webhook

Find the Discord channel in which you would like to send commits and other updates
In the settings for that channel, find the Webhooks option and create a new webhook. Note: Do NOT give this URL out to the public. Anyone or service can post messages to this channel, without even needing to be in the server. Keep it safe!

Step 2 - Set up the webhook on Github

Navigate to your repository on Github, and open the Settings

What forces layout / reflow

All of the below properties or methods, when requested/called in JavaScript, will trigger the browser to synchronously calculate the style and layout*. This is also called reflow or layout thrashing, and is common performance bottleneck.

Generally, all APIs that synchronously provide layout metrics will trigger forced reflow / layout. Read on for additional cases and details.

Element APIs

Getting box metrics

elem.offsetLeft, elem.offsetTop, elem.offsetWidth, elem.offsetHeight, elem.offsetParent

Experimental Generation of Interpersonal Closeness

Instructions to Subjects Included With Task Slips Packet

This is a study of interpersonal closeness, and your task, which we think will be quite enjoyable, is simply to get close to your partner. We believe that the best way for you to get close to your partner is for you to share with them and for them to share with you. Of course, when we advise you about getting close to your partner, we are giving advice regarding your behavior in this demonstration only, we are not advising you about your behavior outside of this demonstration.

In order to help you get close we've arranged for the two of you to engage in a kind of sharing game. You're sharing time will be for about one hour, after which time we ask you to fill out a questionnaire concerning your experience of getting close to your partner.

You have been given three sets of slips. Each slip has a question or a task written on it. As soon as you both finish reading these instructions, you should

	const I = x => x
	const K = x => y => x
	const A = f => x => f (x)
	const T = x => f => f (x)
	const W = f => x => f (x) (x)
	const C = f => y => x => f (x) (y)
	const B = f => g => x => f (g (x))
	const S = f => g => x => f (x) (g (x))
	const S_ = f => g => x => f (g (x)) (x)
	const S2 = f => g => h => x => f (g (x)) (h (x))
