elite-plus

A tiny JavaScript library for building HTML declaratively.

This is a more descriptive version of elite which allows you to create elements using named arguments.

Given a Javascript Object or Array describing elements with a tag name (n), text (t), attributes (a), events (e) and children (c), the el function builds and returns a set of HTML elements.

Object model

The object model is defined as folows:

const obj = {
    n: 'p', // tag name
    t: 'Hello', // text
    a: { class: 'awesome', style: 'background: #F00' }, // attributes
    e: { click: (e) => alert('YO') }, // events
    c: [ // children
        { n: 'p', t: 'hello' },
        { n: 'p', t: 'yo' },
    ]
}
