Question: In a few words how will advise someone getting started with JSFX coding, for example, is the advice don't calculate too much at the @slider a good advice?

    depends on what the goals are, but in general make things simple and readable and don't prematurely try to optimize.

    also, for JSFX in particular, variables (e.g. x) are a lot faster than memory (e.g. x[1]), and variables and constants are roughly similar in speed (e.g. using some_global_scale = 2.0 vs 2.0 directly in the code, no real difference).

    I see, thanks for tips, especially the variables vs memory.
