AdonisJS Tutorial - Stimulus JS Refactor - Create Your Blog [9] (2018)

In my last video, I went over how I added StimulusJS to our project.

Javan Makhmali from Basecamp was kind enough to offer some feedback!

You can see the Twitter thread here: https://twitter.com/patrickodacre/status/980895908815568897

I've taken Javan's advice and refactored the code. I decided it was a good time to make the controller more reusable, too.


-- Stimulus JS --

From the website: https://stimulusjs.org/

Stimulus is a JavaScript framework with modest ambitions. It doesn't seek to take over your entire front-end—in fact, it's not concerned with rendering HTML at all. Instead, it's designed to augment your HTML with just enough behavior to make it shine. Stimulus pairs beautifully with Turbolinks to provide a complete solution for fast, compelling applications with a minimal amount of effort.

Turbolinks® makes navigating your web application faster. Get the performance benefits of a single-page application without the added complexity of a client-side JavaScript framework. Use HTML to render your views on the server side and link to pages as usual. When you follow a link, Turbolinks automatically fetches the page, swaps in its BODY, and merges its HEAD, all without incurring the cost of a full page load.
