SPA

SPA is a Single Page Application framework in JavaScript.
Lightweight, standalone, full-featured, and compatible with all modern browsers and devices (plus IE9).

Features

Component-based

• The app is built with "components" having their own HTML, CSS and JS.
• Each component can represent a page or a reusable element.
• Components can be easily configured and have their own state, data and methods.
• They can instanciate and contain any other component.
• They can add, remove or replace themselves or their children.
• Code can be executed when templates are created or removed.

Templating

• Components are displayed using templates.
• Templates are regular HTML files, except they can use "mustaches" to perform tests, loops, translations, access the component's data, execute JS code, etc.
• Templates can be redrawn after changing their component's state or data.

URL & routing

• The built-in URL engine allows to get and set URL's content, parameters and hash easily.
• The built-in router allows to display a given "page" depending on the current URL, and handle 404's.
• SPA avoids page reloads and keeps a clean browser history.

Events & Forms

• SPA eases the listening of events in each component, directly from the HTML or from the JS code.
• Form submits are catched and sent via AJAX requests.
• Automatic XSS prevention

Internationalization

• Auto detection of the user's region and language.
• Easy declaration of available languages, and fallback language(s) to handle missing translations.
• Translations are read directly from your PO files.
• Components can have their own translation files

Versioning, caching and data persistence

• App's assets are reloaded after a version bump.
• Data persistence uses localStorage.
• Update scripts can be used to seamlessly update the localStorage model if it changed between two versions.
