@ -21,7 +21,7 @@ It may seem wasteful to recreate vnodes so frequently, but as it turns out, mode
For that reason, Mithril uses a sophisticated and highly optimized virtual DOM diffing algorithm to minimize the amount of DOM updates. Mithril *also* generates carefully crafted vnode data structures that are compiled by Javascript engines for near-native data structure access performance. In addition, Mithril aggressively optimizes the function that creates vnodes as well.
The reason Mithril goes to such great lengths to support a rendering model that recreates the entire virtual DOM tree on every render is to provide a declarative [immediate mode](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immediate_mode_(computer_graphics)) API, a style of rendering that makes it drastically easier to manage UI complexity.
The reason Mithril goes to such great lengths to support a rendering model that recreates the entire virtual DOM tree on every render is to provide a declarative [immediate mode](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immediate_mode_%28computer_graphics%29) API, a style of rendering that makes it drastically easier to manage UI complexity.
To illustrate why immediate mode is so important, consider the DOM API and HTML. The DOM API is an imperative [retained mode](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retained_mode) API and requires 1. writing out exact instructions to assemble a DOM tree procedurally, and 2. writing out other instructions to update that tree. The imperative nature of the DOM API means you have many opportunities to micro-optimize your code, but it also means that you have more chances of introducing bugs and more chances to make code harder to understand.
