T

T is a micro-library (<1 KB) to create DOM Trees using tagged templates.

Key Features

  • Micro-library <1 KB
  • Zero Dependencies
  • No compilation needed
  • Real DOM Tree
  • SSR out of the box
  • Small API, not much to learn

Let's Play

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
    <head>
        <script type="module">
            import t from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/gc-victor/t/dist/esm/index.js';
            // Use any patch engine of your choice that patches DOM trees
            import p from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/gc-victor/p/dist/esm/index.js';

            let count = 0;
            const increment = () => {
                count = count + 1;
                // Updates the DOM
                p(document.getElementById('app'), counter());
            };
            const decrement = () => {
                count = count - 1;
                // Updates the DOM
                p(document.getElementById('app'), counter());
            };
            const add = (ev) => {
                count = Number(ev.target.value);
                // Updates the DOM
                p(document.getElementById('app'), counter());
            };

            const component = () => {
                return t`
                    <div id="app">
                        <h1>Counter</h1>
                        <button onclick="${increment}">+</button>
                        <input oninput="${add}" name="input" type="number" value="${count}" />
                        <button onclick="${decrement}">-</button>
                    </div>
                `;
            };
            
            p(document.getElementById('app'), component());
        </script>
    </head>
    <body>
        <div id="app">
            <h1>Counter</h1>
            <button>+</button><input name="input" type="number" value="0"><button>-</button>
        </div>
    </body>
</html>

Install

You can use pnpm, npm or yarn to install it.

npm install git+https://github.com/gc-victor/t.git#main

Import it in your framework.

import t from 't';

Or import it in a <script> as a module.

<script type="module">
    import t from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/gc-victor/t/dist/esm/index.js';
</script>

How to use it

A key or name attribute is required to keep the focus of an active element when its content change.

t`<input name="input" />`

An attribute with placeholders has to be between quotes.

t`<button onclick="${increment}">${text}</button>`

The events use the native naming convention and the handler as the rest of the attributes between quotes.

t`<input oninput="${add}" name="input" type="number" value="${count}" />`

Multiple templates can be inherited

t`<p>${t`<span>t</span>`}</p>`;

Compatible Versioning

Summary

Given a version number MAJOR.MINOR, increment the:

  • MAJOR version when you make backwards-incompatible updates of any kind
  • MINOR version when you make 100% backwards-compatible updates

Additional labels for pre-release and build metadata are available as extensions to the MAJOR.MINOR format.

Pull requests are the greatest contributions, so be sure they are focused in scope and do avoid unrelated commits.

  • Fork it!
  • Clone your fork: git clone http://github.com/<your-username>/t
  • Navigate to the newly cloned directory: cd t
  • Create a new branch for the new feature: git checkout -b my-new-feature
  • Install the tools necessary for development: npm install
  • Make your changes.
  • npm run build to verify your change doesn't increase output size.
  • npm test to make sure your change doesn't break anything.
  • Commit your changes: git commit -am 'Add some feature'
  • Push to the branch: git push origin my-new-feature
  • Submit a pull request with full remarks documenting your changes.
