WebStorm - IntelliSense & type evaluation performance issue
duckception opened this issue · comments
Description
Current TypeScript engine of WebStorm and possibly all other JetBrains IDEs struggle with the Virtual
type from the @ponder/core
package making Ponder basically impossible to work with in those IDEs.
Type evaluation and completions for files that imports anything from the Ponder @/generated
namespace makes the IDE consume more than 250% of CPU, especially when trying to get an auto completion for the event strings generated from the ABIs. Auto completion for ponder.on
can sometimes take even more than a full minute to load:
This is related to this issue and the JetBrains team is working on a rework for their TypeScript engine which is supposed to resolve this and similar issues.
Interim Solution
Until the Virtual
type gets optimized or JetBrains ships the new TypeScript engine, you can install the EAP (Early Access Program) version of WebStorm that ships with an experimental build of the new engine. The instructions how to download this version and turn on the new engine are in the pinned comment in the issue linked above.
While the EAP version contains some bugs, at least Ponder is working fine! ✨
