patchFlags.ts

/**
 * Patch flags are optimization hints generated by the compiler.
 * when a block with dynamicChildren is encountered during diff, the algorithm
 * enters "optimized mode". In this mode, we know that the vdom is produced by
 * a render function generated by the compiler, so the algorithm only needs to
 * handle updates explicitly marked by these patch flags.
 *
 * Patch flags can be combined using the | bitwise operator and can be checked
 * using the & operator, e.g.
 *
 * ```js
 * const flag = TEXT | CLASS
 * if (flag & TEXT) { ... }
 * ```
 *
 * Check the `patchElement` function in '../../runtime-core/src/renderer.ts' to see how the
 * flags are handled during diff.
