Vomit is a JavaScript library for building stateless user interfaces.

* **Declarative**: Vomit leverages JavaScript template strings to create interactive UIs. Logic is written in JavaScript instead of templates, making your code more predictable, simple to understand and easier to debug.
* **Component-Based**: Build encapsulated components and compose them to make complex UIs. Everything is as simple as a function call!
* **Async**: Vomit has been built with promises and streams at its core. Dealing with IO bounds has never been so easy!
* **Easy to learn**: Simple is better! We don't make any assumptions about your coding style or technology stack. 5 minutes are enough to learn Vomit!

## Usage

```js
var vomit = require('vomit')

function stopwatch(start) {
// create timer dynamic component
var timer = vomit(clock)

// update timer dom element every second
setInterval(() => timer(++start), 1000)

// return timer dom element
return timer(start)
}

// create timer static component
function clock(seconds) {
return vomit`

Seconds Elapsed: ${seconds}
`
}

document.body.appendChild(stopwatch(0));
```

Vomit does not force you into any syntax/API but instead uses the power of JavaScript [template literals](https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2015/01/ES6-Template-Strings) built in your browser. Quickly create DOM element that you can [compose](/doc/placeholders/) with Objects, Arrays, other DOM elements, Functions, **Promises and even Streams**.

Check out [examples](/examples) and [docs](/doc) for more information.

## Installation

```shell
npm install vomit --save
```

[![NPM](https://nodei.co/npm/vomit.png)](https://nodei.co/npm/vomit/)

## Features

Vomit stands for **V**~~irtual d~~**OM IT** ~~sucks~~ and ironically uses a virtual dom strategy based on real DOM to efficiently update your components . Other features are:
- Separate and optimize rendering of static and dynamic content
- HTML5 Web Component
- Server side rendering (check out [steroid](http://github.com/bredele/steroid))
- Works with SVG
- 3kb minified + gzipped, ideal for mobile and to include as dependency
- Share the same core engine than the MVVM library [brick](http://github.com/bredele/brick)

You'll find Vomit disgustingly easy to learn. Please check out our [5 minutes tutorial](https://github.com/bredele/vomit/blob/master/doc/getting-started.md) to get started,
