Release Notes

Exports

• uhtml as default { Hole, render, html, svg, attr } with smart auto-keyed nodes - read keyed or not ? paragraph to know more
• uhtml/keyed with extras { Hole, render, html, svg, htmlFor, svgFor, attr }, providing keyed utilities - read keyed or not ? paragraph to know more
• uhtml/node with same default exports but it's for one-off nodes creation only so that no cache or updates are available and it's just an easy way to hook uhtml into your existing project for DOM creation (not manipulation!)
• uhtml/init which returns a document => uhtml/keyed utility that can be bootstrapped with uhtml/dom, LinkeDOM, JSDOM for either SSR or Workers support
• uhtml/dom which returns a specialized uhtml compliant DOM environment that can be passed to the uhtml/init export to have 100% same-thing running on both client or Web Worker / Server. This entry exports { Document, DOMParser } where the former can be used to create a new document while the latter one can parse well formed HTML or SVG content and return the document out of the box.
• uhtml/reactive which allows usage of symbols within the optionally keyed render function. The only difference with other exports, beside exporting a reactive field instead of render, so that const render = reactive(effect) creates a reactive render per each library, is that the render(where, () => what), with a function as second argument is mandatory when the rendered stuff has signals in it, otherwise these can't side-effect properly.
• uhtml/preactive is an already bundled uhtml/reactive with @preact/signals-core in it, so that its render exported function, among all other preact related exports, is already working.

uhtml/init example

import init from 'uhtml/init';
import { Document } from 'uhtml/dom';

const document = new Document;

const {
  Hole,
  render,
  html, svg,
  htmlFor, svgFor,
  attr
} = init(document);

uhtml/preactive example

import { render, html, signal } from 'uhtml/preactive';

const count = signal(0);

render(document.body, () => html`
  <button onclick=${() => { count.value++ }}>
    Clicks: ${count.value}
  </button>
`);
