This switches the rendering of the layout from using HTML and CSS to using a canvas (technically it's two). This not only should improve the performance but also brings the rendering in line with our native renderers, enabling new features such as vertical resizing and horizontal layouts. This also removes a lot of code specific to the HTML rendering and thus greatly simplifies the codebase. There is one slight regression in that the layout editor doesn't allow clicking and dragging the individual components directly on the layout anymore. This is however something we can explore directly in `livesplit-core` in the future, so other frontends can benefit from it as well.
LiveSplit One
LiveSplit One is a version of LiveSplit that uses the multiplatform livesplit-core library and web technologies like React to create a new LiveSplit experience that works on a lot of different platforms.
The web version of LiveSplit One is available here.
Build Instructions
In order to build LiveSplit One, you need to install npm and the Rust compiler. Make sure to recursively clone the repository so that all git submodules are cloned as well:
git clone --recursive
Once you have cloned the repository and set up both npm and the Rust compiler, you need to install the WebAssembly target:
rustup target add wasm32-unknown-unknown
You also need to build wasm-bindgen:
cargo install wasm-bindgen-cli
You need to set up some npm modules before compiling the project:
npm install
You are now ready to build livesplit-core, which powers LiveSplit One:
npm run build:core
Now you can build and host LiveSplit One:
npm run start
A browser tab with LiveSplit One should now open. Alternatively, you can use npm run serve to just host it without opening a browser tab.
