Mador:
- is a very small reactive DOM runtime.
- is for people who don't need or want a framework.
It gives you reactive state and a way to bind that state to existing DOM.
Mador is a native ES module and can be used through npm or directly from a CDN.
import mador from "https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@marsbos/mador@latest/dist/mador.js";
const [r, w] = mador({
count: 1,
});
r(
".counter",
(el, count) => {
el.textContent = `Count: ${count}`;
},
(state) => state.count,
);
r(
".another-counter",
(el, count) => {
el.textContent = count * 3;
},
(state) => state.count,
);
w((state) => {
state.count++;
});And that's basically all.
There are no components, templates or virtual DOM. Mador works with the DOM you already have.
A binding consists of three things:
r(selector, update, read);selector selects the elements to update.
update receives each element and the value returned by read.
read selects the state the binding depends on.
r(
".counter",
(el, count) => {
el.textContent = count * 2;
},
(state) => state.count,
);Mador tracks the properties read by the binding and only reruns it when those dependencies change.
State is changed through w:
w((state) => {
state.count++;
});Writes are batched, so multiple changes made in the same write are processed together.
'Bindings' are associated with the DOM they update.
When the matching elements are gone, Mador can remove the corresponding reactive runner.
There is no component lifecycle to manage.
Sometimes a page doesn't need a framework.
It already has HTML & Javascript, but is just needs a little reactivity.
Mador is made to do that.
Mador is intentionally small.
The runtime is currently around 855 bytes minified.
Mador is distributed as an ES module.
import mador from "mador";No global runtime and no build step is required.
