While 'SvelteComponent | null' seems to make it into the .tsx file
created by svelte2tsx, the subsequent tsc call seems to discard the
'| null' part when creating the .d.ts file. Hack around it with a cast
for now; this may be fixed if we move to ts_project in the future.
Allows some type errors to surface that were only being picked up
on Windows.
The root cause seems to be TypeScript picking up other .d.ts/.tsx
files in the same folder, which it can only do on Windows due to the
lack of sandboxing. On other platforms the other files can't be found,
and tsc changes the types into 'any'.
I experimented with modifying rules_svelte to build all .tsx files up
front and convert them to .d.ts in bulk, but ran into further issues
with conflicting types, as the typings in svelte2tsx seem to conflict
with Svelte's built-in types, and passing the dependencies in explicitly
causes them to be checked even though --skipLibCheck is passed in to
TypeScript.
Forcing sandboxing off is an ugly hack, and our best approach moving
forward may be to switch to ts_project for the Svelte generation -
it does appear that rules_nodejs favours it over ts_library anyway.
Running and testing should be working on the three platforms, but
there's still a fair bit that needs to be done:
- Wheel building + testing in a venv still needs to be implemented.
- Python requirements still need to be compiled with piptool and pinned;
need to compile on all platforms then merge
- Cargo deps in cargo/ and rslib/ need to be cleaned up, and ideally
unified into one place
- Currently using rustls to work around openssl compilation issues
on Linux, but this will break corporate proxies with custom SSL
authorities; need to conditionally use openssl or use

- Makefiles and docs still need cleaning up
- It may make sense to reparent ts/* to the top level, as we don't
nest the other modules under a specific language.
- rspy and pylib must always be updated in lock-step, so merging
rspy into pylib as a private module would simplify things.
- Merging desktop-ftl and mobile-ftl into the core ftl would make
managing and updating translations easier.
- Obsolete scripts need removing.
- And probably more.
