Taffy 0.2, a blazing-fast, well-tested layout library is now released!

We've stamped out the remaining exponential-time blowup issue with deep hierarchies, resulting in more than 99% reductions in compute times on fairly reasonable deep benchmarks. NicoBurns was a superstar 🤩

For those of you who thought it was "fast enough", we now also implement the `gap` property of flexbox: space out your widgets with care.

We'd love help benchmarking our results against other solutions in and .

Initial benchmarking shows significant improvements over Yoga, Meta's solution for this problem, especially on deep hierarchies. It would be great to see more projects try us out, and for our competitors to learn from the clever caching tricks we used to improve our algorithmic complexity.
