It honestly sucks, being always on the defence mode.

First things first:

I’m not against anything or anyone at all - and what will be integrated and supported or not is absolutely OK for me, I can’t influence it anyway.

PG allows you to deal with anything the web offers. It’s just a question of personal taste and abilities. Expecting entirely support is the one - trying to create something on your own the other. The big problem I’ve got is, with every “Plug-In”, another ref to css and js will be added to the DOM. For every lil fart on page and ever and ever again. Finally people end up having 10 references in the head for CSS and 10 in the before end body for js. Certainly - their problem. But then we shouldn’t wonder about upcoming threads like those

> Hi dcneuts, Finally a decent reply. I already thought there where no real developers who use Pinegrow. I’m still working out to get pinegrow embedded in my workflow, but until now it’s just a pine in the ass. So for now I will only do some test with it alongside my current workflow. Your reply made things a little clearer to me, and as you said I’m not looking for another page builder and like you I’m afraid that it will go down this road. Anyway, thank you for your reply it shows there is …

in the future. What I’m about is a work-around for this problem first. Something, that makes PG concatenating and compiling those 10 lines first, making a cleaner and more compact code later (such as an example).

Regarding Hype, apologise misunderstanding the concept. In fact, all I know about it is years old. I only remember Hypes output includes all elements required for running it natively in a browser. And all I remember is people copying the entire sauce into the body-element, finally having two of them - certainly all the rest (doctype, html, head) as well.

I personally don’t see a need of concepts like those nor do I necessarily need a successor for Flash. But perhaps I missed a trend.

Cheers

Thomas
