A Look At Component Reactivity

In This Lesson

We'll take a look at how we'll approach reactivity within our EdgeJS components using AlpineJS. We'll also briefly discuss where the line between EdgeJS and AlpineJS is, in terms of our component state and reactivity.

Although EdgeJS Components draw inspiration from popular front-end frameworks like Vue and Svelte, it’s important to remember that it’s a back-end rendered template engine and can’t replicate all of the principals of the front-end ecosystem.

EdgeJS & Reactivity

The primary principal EdgeJS can’t replicate is reactivity. In front-end applications reactivity allows us to dynamically update the DOM based on state and is usually maintained by one or two way data binding. This works for front-end applications because the state can be maintained client-side in the browser.
