choop
Ever wondered what would happen if preact and choo got a baby?
Welp, wonder no longer - here's the answer. Full on choo architecture plus a couple preact goodies like h() and components. No JSX, only template strings via hyperx. But you can use JSX if you want to. We even get almost all of the React ecosystem through preact-compat.
}
And then render them in your views using `h()`:
```js
var html = require('choop/html')
var h = require('choop/h')
var ClickMe = require('./ClickMe')
function view (state, emit) {
return html`
<body>
${h(ClickMe)}
</body>
`
}
Optionally pass data a.k.a. props
:
h(MyComponent, { someData: 'beep' })
You can use props
or an additional constructor function to pass emit
into your components.
state.cache
choo
version 6.11.0
introduced a state.cache
helper for managing nanocomponent
instances. This is not included in choop
since component instance management is taken care of by preact
.

FAQ
Should I use this?
Sometimes you gotta use react
, and the best thing to do in that case might be to jump on the preact
train, grab a bag of architecture and go to town. This might not be for me, but perhaps it's useful for you. Here you go! ?
What's the real difference here?
nanomorph
is replaced by preact
How do I run react widgets in choop?
Like this:
npm i -S preact preact-compat
npm i -S preact-compat/react preact-compat/react-dom
What's the size?
Something like 8.7 kB
What about choo?
Yeah, what about me? (drumroll)
