TargetJS: Rethinking UI with Declarative, Synchronous Pipelines
- TargetJS is a framework that rethinks UI with declarative, synchronous pipelines.
- The framework utilizes internal wrappers called 'targets' for properties and methods of JavaScript literal objects, executing them sequentially in the order written.
- It enables functional pipelines between targets, adds lifecycles, looping, and timing functionalities to enhance execution.
- TargetJS simplifies state management by treating properties and methods uniformly with lifecycles and states.
- CSS styles can be integrated into the same object as targets, providing enhanced style property utility with value iteration for easy style animations.
- Targets work synchronously, providing a unified solution for UI rendering, event handling, and API interactions.
- An example showcases rendering a purple square and animating its width, demonstrating how targets are executed in order and can create enhanced HTML elements.
- UI rendering and animation examples further illustrate how TargetJS can create multiple animated squares and transition their properties.
- Event handling is shown by adding click events to squares, resetting animations on each click using specialized targets like onClick.
- An API call example demonstrates integrating API calls into animations, showcasing targets like loadSquare to fetch data and populate to display results appropriately.
