//! # VirtualDOM Implementation for Rust
//! This module provides the primary mechanics to create a hook-based, concurrent VDOM for Rust.
//!
//! In this file, multiple items are defined. This file is big, but should be documented well to
//! navigate the innerworkings of the Dom. We try to keep these main mechanics in this file to limit
//! the possible exposed API surface (keep fields private). This particular implementation of VDOM
//! is extremely efficient, but relies on some unsafety under the hood to do things like manage
//! micro-heaps for components. We are currently working on refactoring the safety out into safe(r)
//! abstractions, but current tests (MIRI and otherwise) show no issues with the current implementation.
//!
//! Included is:
//! - The [`VirtualDom`] itself
//! - The [`Scope`] object for mangning component lifecycle
//! - The [`ActiveFrame`] object for managing the Scope`s microheap
//! - The [`Context`] object for exposing VirtualDOM API to components
//! - The [`NodeFactory`] object for lazyily exposing the `Context` API to the nodebuilder API
//!
//! This module includes just the barebones for a complete VirtualDOM API.
//! Additional functionality is defined in the respective files.

/// Due to platform differences in how time is handled, this method accepts a future that resolves when the deadline
/// is exceeded. However, the deadline won't be met precisely, so you might want to build some wiggle room into the
/// deadline closure manually.

/// The deadline is polled before starting to diff components. This strikes a balance between the overhead of checking
/// the deadline and just completing the work. However, if an individual component takes more than 16ms to render, then
/// the screen will "jank" up. In debug, this will trigger an alert.
///
/// If there are no in-flight fibers when this method is called, it will await any possible tasks, aborting early if
/// the provided deadline future resolves.
///
/// For use in the web, it is expected that this method will be called to be executed during "idle times" and the
/// mutations to be applied during the "paint times" IE "animation frames". With this strategy, it is possible to craft
/// entirely jank-free applications that perform a ton of work.

/// static App: FC<()> = |cx| rsx!(in cx, div {"hello"} );

///
/// This method returns "mutations" - IE the necessary changes to get the RealDOM to match the VirtualDOM. It also
/// includes a list of NodeRefs that need to be applied and effects that need to be triggered after the RealDOM has
/// applied the edits.
