What do you think Although I'm sure it is possible to make a generic component architecture in Javascript I highly doubt that it makes sense. JS is almost all about UI and DOM manipulation, and having something as abstract as a generic component framework for that may be an abstraction too far. So what you want is a framework for making modular JS clients. And there are tons and tons of modular frameworks for making front-end apps in Javascript already. Creating another one probably doesn't make any sense, at least not until you can explain exactly why you can't use anyone of those that exist. //Lennart ___ Zope-Dev maillist - Zope-Dev@zope.org https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )

Re: [Zope-dev] ZCA for javascript
Hi, I instantly thought, we could do ZCA in Javascript. And while not many people likes ZODB servers, they all love Javascript clients. Has anyone done something like this? Is anyone interested in doing something like this? Some companies incl. Nexedi are working on this: renderjs.org It is intended to be a component architecture in Javascript in which : - a component is defined as an HTML page (reusable) - interaction between components is defined inside interaction components (reusable) - anything else (inter-component communication, metadata) is based on typed links - and it can support of form of JS code isolation (https://gitorious.org/nexedi/renderjs/commits/safejs) which was created at INRIA renderjs.org combined with j-io.org will be used to make a pure JS offline office suite and the new UI of ERP5. Possibly, we will make an alternative UI to ZMI based on it. renderjs.org is not yet alpha j-io.org is alpha safejs is not yet alpha What do you think True component architectures are missing in JS world and some useful initiatives (ex. AMD) are too much inspired by static typed systems to fully leverage the dynamic nature of JS. Replicating ZCA or other component architectures to JS has other issues: it could leads to a programming style which could be rejected by JS communities, for good or for bad reasons. Regards, JPS. And forgive me if this is not strictly speaking about zope development, but this email list is certainly the community of people who would be interested in this topic.
