This project is part of the @thi.ng/umbrella monorepo.
Lightweight, reactive, VDOM-less UI/DOM components with async lifecycle and @thi.ng/hiccup compatible.
ALPHA - bleeding edge / work-in-progress

This is still a young project. Even though most of the overall approach, component lifecycle and API are fairly stable by now (after ~70 commits over several months), so far there's only sparing documentation and only a handful of public examples. After some more user feedback, there's likely going to be further refactoring required here and there, none of which is expected to cause breaking changes in this core package and will likely come in the form of additions or alternatives to existing control structures (unless they would be entirely subsuming current features/approaches)...
For the sake of deduplication of functionality and to keep the number of dependencies to a minimum, direct @thi.ng/atom integration has been removed in favor of using relevant @thi.ng/rstream constructs, which can be used as lightweight adapters, i.e.:
- @thi.ng/rdom-canvas - @thi.ng/rdom component wrapper for @thi.ng/hiccup-canvas and declarative canvas drawing
- @thi.ng/rdom-components - Collection of unstyled, customizable components for @thi.ng/rdom

TODO
Currently, documentation only exists in the form of small examples and various doc strings (incomplete). I'm working to alleviate this situation ASAP... In that respect, PRs are welcome as well!
