[2023-06-19] GUI Team Demo Day

[farmaazon]

This week:

• I was carefully reviewing Wojciech's PR with special attention to the soundness of the PR (no such issues were found, however)
• Otherwise, I continued tracking the leaks after calling drop on our IDE wasm. It turned out that the Scene was leaking in multiple places, also found that our event listeners were not always detached on handler drop (because we haven't passed the options to removeEventListener method).
• In the process, I also make the error about visualization failure disappear after some time

I'm working on new FRP integration with GUI. The current progress:

Task	Progress	Days Needed To Finish It
Moving old FRP nodes to new impl	66% (66/99)	1 day
Testing all FRP nodes	0% (0/99)	1-2 days
Adding bridge network to the new impl	0%	< 1 day
Moving network::extend! macro to new impl	0%	1 day
Heavy testing and debugging	0%	1-2 days

To sum it up, I need another 4-6 days to properly finish and test the new implementation. There is a delay of ~5 days regarding the previous estimation that is caused by:

• Merging the previous PR taking more time (2-3 days more) than estimated. This was mainly caused by the amount of comments I got from @farmaazon (which I'm very thankful for, as they were very on-point).
• Me feeling a little bit unwell during Friday and Saturday.
• Technical problems with the integration – I was trying to do some of the trait implementations in a generic way, but it seems Rust's type system is not ready for it yet, so I created some magical macros to handle these cases instead.

• Minor refactorings in Replace Tailwind with custom CSS rules in documentation panel #6978 – CSS rules will no longer conflict with the rest of the application, on QA.
• Fix for cursor position when clicking into nodes (Fix issues with mouse cursor position when editing nodes #7014) finally got merged.
• Fixed redundant imports when using dropdown widgets: Fix redundant imports when selecting options from the dropdown widget #7028 (on QA)
• Bumping rustc to 1.70 (Bump rustc to version 1.70.0 equivalent. #6895) – in progress, moderate amount of new issues in the code.

Next week:

• Resizing visualization by dragging container's edge. #7047

[kazcw]

• Fixed dropdown laziness (Loading dropdowns with many elements is too long. #6865).
• Fixed a edge/expression edit logic bug (Case 1 in User can edit edges and other components at the same time #7018).
• Fix regression in node selection rendering (2nd bug in Rendering issues following merger of "reduce draw calls" #6975).

• Integrating new remote logging endpoint; waited for a cloud-side fix that landed today, if everything works PR should be ready within a day.
• Redirecting logs to file: encountered some issues; should be ready within a day or two.

This week: finish ongoing work, fix undo/redo issues with visualizations.

Engine team & performance:

• Investigate reasons for Request timeouts during AttachVisualizationHandler #7005
• Benchmarking Enso version of the Sieve of Eratosthenes algorithm #7019

[Frizi]

• Still finishing PR with edge connection handling Do not immediately modify code when disconnecting the edge at target side. #7041. Still having issues with graph editor tests, specifically with mouse handling in them. Since I'm now using new mouse events API, the old hacky way of manipulating cursor position and sending events was not working properly. The edge bugs are fixed though.
• Going to continue working on design changes as soon as those tests are fixed (I hope still today).
