Updated version that looks at tree based approaches such as React, Vue, etc

[fatso83]

Even 8 years after this was last updated, this is still easily the best top-down approach of looking at single page applications IMHO, but I feel it needs a second edition that includes the "modern" approaches seen in React and Vue, where you build component trees.

I am not totally sure where to put these in the hierarchies, but it looks to me like they both belong to the model backed views camp with string-granular updates?

• Markup-driven views vs. Model-backed views
• View-granular vs. element-granular vs. string-granular updates

React renders the VDOM and diffs the results, updating what has changed, but it's a bit unclear how.
