The bug

The bug that we saw in the presentation was at src/vdom/diff.js line 40. We were doing this before:

  const childPatches = [];
  for (const [oldVChild, newVChild] of zip(oldVChildren, newVChildren)) {
    childPatches.push(diff(oldVChild, newVChild));
  }

The problem with this is we are not doing diff(newVChidlren, undefined). So diff(oldVChild, undefined) is never called. So we were missing some patches for removing the old children.

A quick fix is to replace the following lines with

  const childPatches = [];
  oldVChildren.forEach((oldVChild, i) => {
    childPatches.push(diff(oldVChild, newVChildren[i]));
  });

This make sure we loop through all oldVChildren and add patches for removing stuff.
