@jucie-reactive/core

Fine-grained reactive programming with signals, computed values, and reactive surfaces.

Features

- Signals: Simple reactive values with automatic dependency tracking
- Reactors: Computed values that update when dependencies change
- Surfaces: Component-like reactive contexts with state management
- Subscribers: Side effects that run when reactive values change
- Async Support: Native support for async computations
- Batched Updates: Efficient change propagation

Installation

``bash
npm install @jucie-reactive/core
`

Quick Start

$3

Reactive primitive values:

`javascript
import { createSignal } from '@jucie-reactive/core';

const count = createSignal(0);

console.log(count()); // 0
count(5);
console.log(count()); // 5

// Update based on current value
count(n => n + 1);
console.log(count()); // 6
`

$3

Automatically computed values:

`javascript
import { createSignal, createComputed } from '@jucie-reactive/core';

const count = createSignal(0);
const doubled = createComputed(() => count() * 2);

console.log(doubled()); // 0
count(5);
console.log(doubled()); // 10
`

$3

Declarative reactive components:

`javascript
import { defineSurface } from '@jucie-reactive/core';

const useCounter = defineSurface(({ value, computed, action }) => ({
count: value(0),
doubled: computed((ctx) => ctx.count * 2),
increment: action((ctx) => ctx.count++),
decrement: action((ctx) => ctx.count--)
}));

const counter = useCounter();
console.log(counter.count); // 0
console.log(counter.doubled); // 0

counter.increment();
console.log(counter.count); // 1
console.log(counter.doubled); // 2
`

$3

Side effects for reactive values:

`javascript
import { createSignal, createSubscriber } from '@jucie-reactive/core';

const count = createSignal(0);

createSubscriber(
() => count(),
(value) => console.log('Count changed:', value)
);

count(1); // Logs: "Count changed: 1"
count(2); // Logs: "Count changed: 2"
`

Advanced Features

$3

`javascript
import { createSignal, createComputed } from '@jucie-reactive/core';

const userId = createSignal(1);

const userData = createComputed(async () => {
const response = await fetch(/api/users/${userId()});
return response.json();
});

// Returns a promise
const data = await userData();
`

$3

`javascript
import { defineSurface } from '@jucie-reactive/core';

const useApp = defineSurface({
state: {
count: 0,
message: 'Hello'
},
computed: {
doubled(ctx) {
return ctx.count * 2;
}
},
actions: {
increment(ctx) {
ctx.count++;
}
},
onInit(ctx) {
console.log('Surface initialized');
},
onDestroy(ctx) {
console.log('Surface destroyed');
}
});
`

$3

`javascript
import { createSignal, addEffect } from '@jucie-reactive/core';

const count = createSignal(0);

addEffect(count, (value) => {
console.log('Effect:', value);
});

count(1); // Logs: "Effect: 1"
`
