[chasen]

Attendees: @bmomberger-bitovi @chasen @James0x57 @matthewp @phillipskevin

Demos & topics:

New StealJS documentation:

• steal-bundle-manifest docs
• Server templating in Node guide
  • Uses the bundle manifest to provide Link; rel=preload headers and HTTP/2 support
  • Works with optimized builds!
• Generating HTML Snippets guide
  • If you don’t use Node.js, then you can create HTML snippets as part of your build process and use the snippets with your server templating language
• We’re working on grouping the docs differently and expanding the docs on different subjects

CanJS 3.10 has been released!

• Updated can-stache-bindings and codemod for upgrading
• Inline named partials
• can-stache: {{debugger}} and whitespace control
• can-element for creating Custom Elements from the Web Components spec
• can-kefir for using Kefir.js anywhere observables are used in CanJS
• can-observe for creating observable Proxy objects without having all the properties defined up-front

can-stache-bindings/colon-bindings codemod transform:

• By default, explicit transform Element and ViewModel bindings, e.g. <button ($click)="method()"></button> to <button on:el:click="method()"></button> (notice the el)
• --implicit for implicit bindings, e.g. <button ($click)="method()"></button> to <button on:click="method()"></button> (no el)
• Works with .component, .html, .js, .md, and .stache files

JSX support in CanJS:

• Request for feedback on what you would expect “CanJS supports JSX” to mean

Fixing dynamic can-imports:

• Kevin’s proposal to add can-async-import
  • We would deprecate <can-import> with content and show a warning
• Matthew prefers an attribute; Chasen had no objections to Kevin’s proposal

Julian’s YouTube Contributors Meeting suggestion:

• Chasen will start updating our videos with keywords from our demos & topics so the videos are more easily searchable
