# ReactJS to SolidJS Converter aka Transpiler

SolidJS is the framework known for its performance (based on the [js framework benchmark](https://github.com/krausest/js-framework-benchmark) project). react2solid is an attempt to create a React to Solid code converter. 

This project has 5 sub-projects or modules:

1. Language agnostic React to Solid transformer rules and test cases

1. ReactJS to SolidJS transpiler - JavaScript frontend

1. React to Solid converter - CLI version, for batch conversion

1. React.js to Solid.js transformer rules  builder - Web UI

1. Automatic ReactJS to SolidJS migration guide - from the transformer rules

## Demo

[ReactJS to SolidJS Converter & Utilities](https://rrjanbiah.github.io/react2solid/)

## Status

Started with swc, JMESPath and Rust in mind, but had to switch to the Babel, jq and SolidJS due to multiple challenges (such as [1](https://github.com/swc-project/swc/discussions/4241), [2](https://github.com/rrjanbiah/react2solid/issues/6), [3](https://github.com/rrjanbiah/react2solid/issues/8)). Now, an MVP is ready without CLI.

## Architecture / Approach

1. Idea is to avoid hardcoding of parser rules

1. Create language agnostic transpiler rules using `jq` selectors and also keep test case scripts along with that

1. Using Babel, get AST for the ReactJS code

1. Apply `jq` selection on the AST

1. Convert the AST to JavaScript/SolidJS

1. For string transformer, it is merely string replace over the code (no AST conversion)

## Acknowledgments

* `schwartzworld` of Hacker News for suggesting SolidJS hackathon

* @ryansolid for creating SolidJS and the awesome community (especially Discord)

## Roadmap

- [ ] v0.0.1 

  - [x] Basic folder structure and naming conventions for the transform rules

  - [x] ReactJS to SolidJS transpiler - JavaScript frontend

  - [x] Builder UI (partly)

  - [x] Automatic migration guide generation

  - [x] ReactJS to SolidJS libraries alternatives (MVP, not handled in code)

- [ ] v0.0.2

  - [ ] Refactor for code duplication and TOML structure

- [ ] v0.0.3

  - [ ] Rust-based converter. Switch to swc?

## Contributing

* Feel free to post any issues or suggestions

* Submit your transform rules using the builder (TODO. Till then feel free to submit PR)
