Explore options for using plain functions instead of resourceFactory

[NullVoxPopuli]

In pairing with folks, resourceFactory is juuust clunky enough to create a knowledge cliff in learning resources

For clarification this is the removal of resourceFactory in

const Timer = resourceFactory(updateMs => {
  return resource(() => {
    setInterval(() => { /* ... */ }, updateMs);
  });
});

and enabling this

function Timer(updateMs) {
  return resource(() => {
    setInterval(() => { /* ... */ }, updateMs);
  });
}

This has the benefit of:

• being one less abstraction
• enabling generics in TS

Sample babel Plugin: https://astexplorer.net/#/gist/1833c986a7167eba0875eaf100a11adb/fb2cb060d563818908747ea2959886c837988759

Options:

• Babel plugin
  • how do we support both modifiers
  • won't work with TS without integrating with Glint
  • and non-modifiers?
• Opt-in re-registration of "default" managers
