Would be interesting to see someone explore this and breakdown how to mock up something simple that immediately uses Solid stuffs, considering how much the Solid community seems to be oriented around React .

for instance, in many other discussions on this forum, there appears to be a distinct desire for a “visual editor for {React, etc} based on SOLID UI” (i.e. the convos regarding web components and such) …

but for me it is also important to remember that this in itself isn’t really SOLID per se, this is a particular implementation of a front end workflow that makes it easier to standardize implementations of SOLID .
