Functional MobX
This project demonstrates a more functional approach to application design when using MobX.
Goals
- Make server-side rendering (SSR) simple.
- Make data-flow clear and easy to reason about.
- Reduce dependency on time and ordering as much as possible.
Design
The application state is created in layers.
- The inner core is driven by plain, old JavaScript objects (POJOs).
- The POJOs are lifted into MobX to form the domain layer.
- The application layer wraps around the domain layer and provides
the interface to the outside world.
Advantages:
- No store/model classes, which makes server-side rendering much simpler.
- Encourages reusable, composable data and functions as opposed to class encapsulation.
Disadvantages:
- Might not be familiar to people coming from OOP-style.
- More boilerplate due to domain and UI separation.
TODOs
- Provide better mechanism for initializing domain state without JSON from SSR. e.g.
fromJS(undefined)
