Future of craftjs

[hkkvo]

Really nice to discover the libray and we are using for production to implement drag and drop application builder. it is Just a query, I have not seen any commit from last 3 months. Is there any update on future of this framework.

Hi All,
i've just spent an hour playing w/ reka, and it's cool! It feels like craftjs, nextgen. It's way buggy, but i'm guessing all the lessons learned from this project here are built into reka from the start. Give it a try. Goto https://reka.js.org/ and goto Components on the left, the App, and that's the main App. A frame appears to be like a component in React, and has props. You can add components or html tags.

I could see it being valuable in a few months, so probably worth keeping an eye on reka.

Here's one bit from the docs which adds to the story: "Reka is built as an experimental state management system for Craft.js, a library for building drag-and-drop page builders."

OK, final edit: "Reka is intended to replace the internal state management system of Craft.js to support the above features; while Craft.js itself would continue to provide higher-level functionalities for page builders such as drag-n-drop."
(see https://reka.js.org/docs/motivation)

Just to clarify - Reka is a side project that I've been working for Craft for the past couple of months and it's not intended to replace Craft but it is intended to replace the current internal state management system used by Craft.

Sorry that it's taking me a while to post an update but I've needed to take a break and I also wanted to get Reka past the proof-of-concept stage.

I will post a proper update in the coming days! In the mean time, feel free to play around with Reka

Excited for Reka. Would love to know if the official launch is in the next few days or will be a bit longer. I am building a flow where I can create a page using craft.js and then want to generate a react app(page) from the created page. Would love to know if there is an easy way to achieve this right now!

Sorry that this has taken a while, writing docs/examples is hard!
