Specification

The main concept of Alef Component is parted in three stages:

• Stage 1 (Docs)
  • Nodes Rendering - render nodes using native DOM
  • Conditional Rendering - render if-else expression in JSX
  • Loop Rendering - render list
  • Memo - use computed state
  • Side Effect - react for state changes
  • Events - handle events to update view
• Stage 2 (Docs)
  • Import Alef Component - import Logo from "./Logo.alef"
  • Slots - <Logo><img ... /></Logo>
  • Reuse Pattern - reuse common logics
  • Inline Component - define component in Alef Component
  • Context - share state in child component tree
  • Styling - inline CSS with scope
  • Transition - transition animation for view changes
  • Asynchronous Component - wait for data fetching
  • Error Boundary - catch errors in child component tree
• Stage 3 (Docs)
  • Mount - mount Alef Component to DOM
  • SSR - server side rendering
  • Precompile - transfom Alef Component code before AOT compilation
  • Hot Refresh - refresh component without data losing

Status

Core concept is done, currently writing the MVP compiler.
