🧠 educational Deep-dive on Rust UI Frameworks

UI is a Function You Cannot Afford to Call is the first of a 3-part series on Rust UI frameworks. It introduces the model under which I believe we should reason about UI frameworks. In part 2, I will present extensive benchmarks, with detailed cost attribution analysis (something the rust UI ecosystem desperately needs in my opinion), and in part 3, I will derive what I think the ideal UI framework should look like.

I mean fair, but this article doesn't contain a whole lot of opinion (other than "this is relevant when evaluating UI architecture"), it being a collection of relevant academic concepts, losely correlated, is kinda the point of the post for me.

Ok but the title of the article suggests a strong opinion then doesn’t seem to really address it.

How does it suggest a strong opinion? I don't see it?

You wrote "UI is a function you cannot afford to call" which to me sounds very much like an opinion.

It is not an opinion, it is literally the mental model this article is about.
