What is ProAct.js
First of all, what ProAct.js is not:
- ProAct.js is not an MVC, MVVM, MV* framework.
- ProAct.js is not a plugin for such a framework.
- ProAct.js doesn't depend on any other library.
So what exactly is ProAct.js?
- ProAct.js is a tool for optimizing calculations and defining dependencies between objects.
- In a way ProAct.js augments the JavaScript language turning it into reactive language.
- ProAct.js is implementation of the Object-oriented approach in the reactive programming.
- Additionally it uses functional reactive programming ideas to connect the dependency graph created by the reactive objects to the outside world.
- ProAct.js can be used as a building block for complex frameworks (like MV* ones). Two-way bindings can be implemented with ease.
And the name?
The name is derived from reACTive PROperties. ProAct.js turns plain JavaScript object fields in reactive properties, which can depend on each other after all.
