v5.8.0 - Minor Update
Change Log
We prioritize consistency over performance
The most recent updates aimed to enhance performance, but we encountered inconsistencies with HTML updates during testing. To ensure greater consistency and predictability, a significant change was implemented, replacing morphdom with idiomorph.
There are other well known libraries that already made that change:
We are indeed using idiomorph and we'll include it officially as part of Turbo 8. We started with morphdom, but eventually switched to idiomorph as we found it way more suitable. It just worked great with all the tests we threw at it, while morphdom was incredibly picky about "ids" to match nodes. Also, we noticed it's at least as fast.

That helps on decision making about changing the core of the library which is the dom diff engine.
v5.7.1 - Patch Update
Change Log
Reverting previous release : Performance Improvement
The latest update focused on optimizing memory usage. However, as Jails is designed to function with or without templates, a bug has been identified when users interact directly with the DOM. Therefore, I am rolling forward the current build. Prioritizing correctness over performance remains our primary concern.
The performance optimization was not discarted but it requires more deep research.
v5.7.0 - Minor Update
Change Log
Performance Improvement
Making Templates smaller by removing child component html content from parent component template by creating "holes" inside the parent component template string.
Since parent component doesn't update child components html, it doesn't need to have child html data saved in memory.
This improvement is very welcome especially for pages that contains application component in the most top level hierarchy.
v5.6.1 - Patch Update
Change Log
The change is related to the previous update.
It was added the behavior in main
to wait until template is fully rendered when using export template
interface.
v5.6.0 - Minor Update
Change Log
Adding template
interface in component module. It will replace the current HTMLElement
template html.
It will unlock a way to set a html dynamically.

dependencies
helper to avoid raising unnecessary exceptions.
v5.5.3 - Patch Update
Change Log
- Updating
innerHTML
interface to accept a DOMElement target.
v5.5.2 - Patch Update
Change Log
- Defensive code for cases where user tries to register the same component twice.
- Fixing type definition for
.start
method, for cases where user wants to call it sending a optional target.
v5.5.1 - Patch Update
Change Log
- Fixing another edge case when using shared template variables among child components. Making it more robust.
v5.5.0 - Minor Update
Change Log
✓ Stabilizing template system shared variable through child components.
✓ Adding new feature innerHTML
that will make possible to update a component with html
string instead of an object, using dom diffing for performance. Useful for server-side oriented UI, like htmx.
Use case:
export const myComponent ({ main, on, innerHTML }) {
main( _ => {
on('click', 'button', updateUI)
})
const updateUI = () => {
fetch('my-service/ui/user-ui-updated')
.then( response => response.text() )
.then( html => innerHTML( html ) )
}
}
