v1.0.0-alpha.3.0.0

Breaking changes and new features

• Added the animate middleware.
• Removed the compose option from the render middleware. It is always true from now on. If it finds a slot element it composes.
• Added a style option to the render middleware, which expects a css string.
• Added the default and required options to the params middleware config.
• Removed element.$schedule.
• The attributes middleware supports boolean attributes from now on, by removing the attribute if it has a falsy value.
• Removed the show attribute, use the native hidden boolean attributes instead.
• Calling next() asynchronously in middlewares won't work anymore.
• next() calls can be omitted if it is at the end of the middleware. It is called automatically when the middleware finishes execution.
• Added a repeat-key attribute for performance optimizations with loops in the view.
• Added state.$raw to every state, which provides acces to the raw, unreactive version of the state.
• The core filters and limiters are exposed on nx.filters and nx.limiters.
• Inline JS expressions will return undefined instead of throwing a TypeError when you try to access a property of undefined (a not yet fetched object).

Fixed

• The ref attribute triggers correctly, when a descendant element of the link is clicked.
• The href attribute is generated correctly from iref attributes.

Performance

• The Web Components polyfill is replaced by a smaller and more performant subset.
• The core is reworked to make execution order more predictable and less bug prone.
• The repeat attribute is refactored to reuse existing DOM nodes more efficiently.
