Changing Expectations- the MVO model

The MVO-modal consists of:

• Modal (=DATA)
• Octopus (=Functionality, Filtering)
• View (=DOM)

Modal

A Modal = code the object + properties inside.

Octopus

An Octopus= bind the Modal and Viewcode together. In here you find the code logic (

1. functionality
2. filtering of Modal code into View

View

A viewcode = code the object + methods

NOTE: The View code NEVER changes the Modal directly. All changes related to code functionality are made within the octopus.

This is to:

1. not mess up the code
2. leave actual data unchanged
3. in this way the modal gives the view only the code functionality it needs.

In short: The octopuscode, is the BINDER CODE, to get the data from the Modal to the VIEW code.

• Always separate Modal and View, and use the Octopus to connect the functionality and filtering of the Modal into the View Code Part.
