Q/A

What is the goal here?

The primary goal is to make writing HTML cleaner, easier, safer and intuitive using Python.

What about performance?

Although performance is not the primary goal here, it should not be a roadblock. htmldoom is copying the syntax and properties of elm, an existing fast and purely functional programming language that specializes in rendering HTML in virtual doms. Elm does all the optimisation internally which I'm sure can be implemented in Python to a great extent.
All the elements and attributes in htmldoom is supposed to be immutable (unless you want to hack it for some reason). Being immutable enables them to be cachable and sharable making use of the flyweight pattern, thus improving the speed of rendering.
Furthermore, if we follow the the DOM size recommendations, i.e.

  • less than 1500 nodes total.
  • maximum depth of 32 nodes.
  • no parent node with more than 60 child nodes.
htmldoom performs really well (refer to the benchmarks).

Conclusion

htmldoom performs best upto a certain number of loops which is generally high enough.
NOTE: These measurements are very naive and shows very basic information.
