Should Atom-Ungit use Space Pen

Open ibnesayeed opened this issue 9 years ago • 5 comments

It looks like Atom core is heading away from space-pen, should we care about it? Here are relevant discussions.

I believe we should as it seems that atom is further fragmenting it's core libraries and some core libraries are behind or has bugs while as fragmented counterparts are more up to date. One example is that ScrollView from core has couple of bugs while as it's fragmented counter part atom-space-pen-views's ScrollView is more workable.

Which is somewhat annoying but I can understand their wishes to be not so monolithic.

Luckily, we don't have a complex view need, we just need an iframe and rest is taken care by the ungit UI, but I think it's worth keeping an eye on which direction the Atom and the developer community is heading.

They are planning to use Polymer. That is an amazing coincidence, because i was just today thinking how much easier ungit would be using Polymer as the UI Framework.

Is anyone else interested in porting effort to move Ungit to a Polymer UI ?

Do you mean Atom is planning to move to Polymer? I knew there were some discussions on view libraries, but never saw anything converging to. Any references?
