05/02/2022, 1:55 AMCan a custom applier run a compose node factory asynchronously? I’m asking because I want to write a custom one for Filament, but some of it may depend on resource loading. Or, would it be best to load x resource first, then run the compose node once readied?

But if you control everything you could have a placeholder node which is ignored while you load the real asset. Basically the same trick as using a loading view or composable but instead supported by your node tree itself
