Is KnockoutJS good?

Social recommendations and mentions

• JSX over the Wire

  > Everything old is new again An age ago I took interest in KnockoutJS based on Model-View-ViewModel and found it pragmatic and easy to use. It was however at the beginning of the mad javascript framework-hopping marathon, so it was considered 'obsolete' after a few months. I just peeked, Knockout still exists. https://knockoutjs.com/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

• A First Look at HTMX and How it Compares to React

  The approach is not new, essentially a variation of Knockout, Alpine, and similar "JS-in-HTML" approaches. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• The Best UI Libraries for Cross-Platform Apps with Tauri

  SolidJS and Tauri form another potent combination for creating performant, lightweight, and secure experiences. SolidJS is a reactive UI library that is similar to Svelte in the way it compiles away reactivity and updates the DOM directly, but it also incorporates a fine-grained reactivity system reminiscent of libraries like Marko, Knockout, and MobX. - Source: dev.to / almost 2 years ago

• Why are signals still not so popular?

  People act like Signals are a new discovery. KnockoutJS was using them 13 years ago and other libraries used them before that. Source: almost 2 years ago

• What is KnockoutJS and how is it relevant in Magento 2?

  Knockout JS is a Javascript library which uses the MVVM pattern to bind data to certain DOM elements. Within Magento, we usually define a View-Model (which is a .js file) and a Template (which is a .html file), and the data in the template file is bound to the view-model, meaning whenever the data in the view-model changes, the template file changes too.

• Magento alternative: How it compares with Medusa, a JavaScript-based ecommerce platform

  Magento is built with PHP. A good understanding of PHP is generally enough to perform different development tasks such as building modules. However, developers often need to work with libraries like Knockout.js and Less when developing themes. - Source: dev.to / almost 3 years ago

• After an eternity, java.com has updated its homepage

  For a small page like that, they are using Oracle content management, knockoutjs, RedwoodJs, MarkedJs, MustacheJs, JQuery and Bootstrap. There's like 10+ layers or div, header and nav elements just to display the logo. They can't even properly anchor the footer at the bottom... Source: about 3 years ago

• Discovered a 63kb tiddlywiki like self saving HTML+JS wiki and its looking cool

  I once made a very crude and simple TiddlyWiki work-alike I called "HulloWurld" https://github.com/calroc/HulloWurld It's 143 KB, but it includes copies of Knockout, Underscore, Zepto, and the "Marked" markdown parser... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ( Good stuff BTW: http://knockoutjs.com/ http://underscorejs.org/ https://zeptojs.com/ https://github.com/chjj/marked ) Probably the only interesting bit is the code to save the page:... - Source: Hacker News / about 3 years ago

• How can I use knockout's $parent/$root pseudovariables from inside a .computed() observable?

  Inside a knockout.js binding expression, I can use the $data, $parent, and $root pseudovariables. How can I get the equivalent of those pseudovariables when I'm using a ko.computed observable declared in JavaScript? Source: about 3 years ago

• How to do two-way filtering in AngularJS?

  In KnockoutJS, I could create a read/write computed property, which allowed me to specify a pair of functions, one which is called to get the value of the property, and one which is called when the property is set. This allowed me to implement, for example, culture-aware input - letting the user type "$1.24" and parsing that into a float in the ViewModel, and have changes in the ViewModel reflected in the input.

• I'm using a static site to keep sports statistics for very few people. I want to have 1 page that changes depending on the player you click? Can I do this without server side processing?

  Have a look at knockoutJS. It's the library with the shallowest learning curve I'm aware of, but does require some programming in JavaScript. Source: about 3 years ago

• Angular: A shift in paradigm

  As the internet became faster, and more reliable, and as browsers unified into “evergreen” releases, developers accepted JSON to be the only shape of data needed to travel on wires. A few years back I posted a question of which was a better framework: serving fully processed HTML scripts over Ajax, or only JSON that would be populated on client-side. See, back then, populating JSON was hand crafted, before... - Source: dev.to / about 3 years ago

  He's talking about AngularJS (v1). It is very different to modern frameworks like Angular (v2+), React, et.al. Frameworks from that era didn't involve setting up any build process. Have a look at https://angularjs.org/ or https://knockoutjs.com/. - Source: Hacker News / over 3 years ago
