Documentation

README

Excerpt

Stimulus

Modest JavaScript framework that connects JS objects to HTML via data attributes. Stimulus does not render HTML -- it augments server-rendered HTML with behavior.

The mental model: HTML is the source of truth, JavaScript controllers attach to elements, and data attributes are the wiring. No build step required with AssetMapper.

Quick Reference

data-controller="name"              attach controller to element
data-name-target="item"             mark element as a target
data-action="event->name#method"    bind event to controller method
data-name-key-value="..."           pass typed data to controller
data-name-key-class="..."           configure CSS class names
data-name-other-outlet=".selector"  reference another controller instance
