Pushing and Pulling: Three Reactivity Algorithms
Summary
The post explains three reactivity algorithms—push-based, pull-based, and push-pull—with practical examples and diagrams. It discusses efficiency, fine-grained updates, glitch avoidance, and dynamic dependencies, and argues that push-pull offers a balanced approach for UI and data-flow systems. Useful for developers building reactive engines, UI frameworks, or no-code automation that relies on data dependencies.
