A low-code, vdom-free hyperscript framework.
- Theme builder optimized for SEO
- Built-in SPA router.
- No build steps, no vDom, no need to rewrite any JS library!
- JSON Schema based forms
- HTML to Hyperscript converter
- Table data with great flexibility
- Graph
- Chart
- Barcode
- Maps
Copy the boilerplate folder to your machine and run the command inside it.
python3 -m http.server
The folder contains 3 files
- favicon.ico: Replace with your app icon.
- app.js: These are your app's routes, modify as you like.
- index.html:
All navigation was automatically generated using
this page.
You must import the file and edit it using the graphical interface and
then modify the
maintag manually which will be the home page of your app.
The demo app uses index.html as the home page and app.js as the router.
All routes were distributed across several modules within the views folder.
It can be an excellent practical reference on how to use Paw and
how to organize the code.
- Bring maximum customization via graphical interface.
- Build a solid, well-tested library of hyperscript components.
- Simplify the use of third-party libraries with components with sane defaults.
- Document all code completely and at the same time concisely.
- Many examples synchronized with the tests.
Frameworks like:
suffer from the same problem.
We can argue that vDom is slow so svelte solves the problem by compiling javascript in the build steps.
We can argue that the frameworks are heavy and svelte solves the problem again, qwik only loads js on demand, and hyperapp is too minimalistic.
We can argue that build steps are unecessary complication and hyperapp is the clear winner here.
But this is getting away from the central problem with these approaches, which they ALL suffer from.
The problem is that frameworks need to control JavaScript centrally in the elements and/or components that are used.
This implies that the code of a library external to the framework must be rewritten.
See for example the number of existing Bootstrap javascript implementations:
These projects exist for the reason that vDom and the implementation of a component library conflict.
If you need a less popular external library and/or use a framework with a smaller community, you will have to reimplement javascript or wait for someone to do it with all the difficulties and bugs involved.
Libraries like Shoelace allow you to use reactive components within these frameworks without having to be reimplemented.
The problem is data exchange, two way data binding needs to be implemented individually for each framework.
Components written in HTML do not have the good parts of these vDom frameworks
that allow you to easily pass objects, arrays and functions to them,
greatly limiting their capacity and making the API difficult.
I wanted to have components with all the capabilities of javascript frameworks
(passing objects, arrays and functions).
And have a simplified interface to access work done in libraries like Bootstrap without having to reimplement javascript.
The fact that using hyperscript allows you to encapsulate the logic of the components in small modules that make the weight of the vDom unnecessary.
I didn't want to have to deal with the complications of build steps.
And I wanted the libraries I used to only be loaded when called (using es6 modules or dynamically adding the script to the page).
And to achieve good SEO, produce an SSR home page with the customization options that exist in the open source world.
I didn't find anything on github or google that went this route, so I created it.
- dashboard presentation
- add body edit functions
- table engine based on api
- completely remove functions assign to DOM, fieldset.setProp with resolver
- highlightjs as a component (js/html)
- tests as a route and qunit as a component
- docs as component
- examples as component
- formatter should be a component?
- normalize schema component and used to apply all defaults everywhere.
outputraw referenced ininput, how to solve that?- allow icon with input to avoid unicode and translation
- separate input and output options
- allow to see other tests variants
- dynamic validation with functions
- input wrapper review
- remove or minimize lang support
- remove non bootstrap options support, minimize options and review settings
- separate outputs
- better array ctrl support (minimize, up, down, remove, add)
- finish documentation
- finish static tests
- finish dynamic tests
It's a very simple project. Any contribution, any feedback is greatly appreciated.
If this project was useful to you, consider giving it a star on github, it's a way to increase evidence and attract more contributors.
This work would not be possible if it were not for these related projects:
