Legend Studio

What problems are you trying to solve?

In order to improve performance in text mode, we could consider removing Studio graph building during text mode.

Describe the solution you would like to see implemented

Currently, we rebuild our graph during each compilation. We will move to rebuild only when leaving text mode.

• remove logic of rebuilding when firing F9 in text-mode
• handle explorer tree logic which requires graph: we can reason out the explorer tree from just the element paths
• handle change detection (show that we disabled change detection in text mode and prevent users from saving, or we could use another change detection mode - maybe compare hashes index built from protocol models)
• Move from a soft transition from/to text mode to a hard transition. Right now we try to keep the form mode state of studio in memory when going to text mode. we should delete that and only rebuild when going back to form mode - we currently already somewhat doing this, but we haven't pushed this hard enough, this would really help avoiding memory-leak: genericize EditorStore and implement TextEditorStore, FormEditorStore to further separate these out (See RFC: Rework editor modes #317 )
  • ? would remove the reprocessElementEditorState

• Update the graph for testables
• Make sure UI does not break when we click on the new elements added in the Local changes tab
• Handle pushing of changes when you are in text mode
