Design "virtual DOM"-like structure for editor UI #860

Open Anton-4 opened 3 years ago

Anton-4 commented 3 years ago

A virtual DOM is key to allow for fast/efficient rendering. It prevents unnecessary calculation for UI components that have not changed.

In design of the VDOM it should be taken into account that this structure is used to communicate with accessibility programs like screen readers for those with impaired vision.

Good inspiration here for VDOM structure and handling interactions. Thanks @rvcas :) !

877 should be done before this issue.
