| It mixes them because it's a small educational example, no one stops you from following MVC practices if you want. Most of the Red GUI examples I know of are "programming in the small", like CRUD interfaces, games, and various interactive environments. [1, 2] The graphical engine relies on OS widgets internally right now, which are resource-heavy and don't scale well (at least on Win32 backend each widget is just that, a window); in the future, more lightweight graphical objects (aka GOBs) will be introduced for use-cases like spreadsheets and data-intensive apps, there's already a PoC for that. [3] For evaluation and benchmarking, I recommend to check out 7GUIs project [4] and add Keera Hails entries to it; here [5] is Red implementation, for comparison. Some tasks in it directly address MVC separation of concerns. [1]: https://github.com/red/code [2]: https://github.com/red/red/wiki/%5BLINKS%5D-Projects-showcas...
