Markup
Reactive HTML Templating System
Markup is a plug-and-play template system for those who need the bare minimal yet powerful way to build user interface. Its small size and ready-to-go nature makes it perfect for quick prototypes, UI components library, browser extensions, and side projects. But make no mistake, it has all the templating features for a big project and serves as a perfect start to build any UI framework or library.
Motivation
Most UI libraries need too much setup and require build with a steep learning curve. If you find a good templating system its either not powerful enough or requires extra things to make it work by itself.
This templating system is standalone system. You don't need anything else to start rendering and reacting to changes.
It requires no build, its tiny, and the API is literally 2 main things to learn, and you are ready to go. It is pretty much HTML and Javascript so the learning curve is extremely small.
Example
Below is a simple todo app and as you can see, its pretty much HTML and Javascript.
import { html, state, repeat } from '@beforesemicolon/markup'
interface TodoItem {
name: string
description: string
id: string
}
const [todos, updateTodos] = state<Array<TodoItem>>([])
const createTodo = () => {
const name = window.prompt('Enter todo name')
const description = window.prompt('Enter todo description') ?? ''
if (name) {
updateTodos((prev) => [
...prev,
{ name, description, id: crypto.randomUUID() },
])
}
}
const deleteTodo = (id) => {
updateTodos((prev) => prev.filter((todo) => todo.id !== id))
}
const TodoItem = ({ name, description, id }: TodoItem) => html`
<div class="todo-item">
<h3>${name}</h3>
<p>${description}</p>
<button type="button" onclick="${() => deleteTodo(id)}">delete</button>
</div>
`
const TodoApp = html`
<h2>Todo App</h2>
<button type="button" onclick="${createTodo}">add new</button>
<div class="todo-list">${repeat(todos, TodoItem)}</div>
`
TodoApp.render(document.body)
