DoneJS Version 3: What’s New?
The main benefit to Version 3.0 is the much speedier server rendering. The tool uses incremental rendering where the application is split into two component parts:
- Static content: This content can be sent immediately meaning that the app can boot much earlier.
- Dynamic content: This must wait and the server continues to render this before forwarding to the client.
Other new features in DoneJS Version 3 include:
- The CanJS 5.0 client-side JavaScript framework: This includes tree-shaking where dead code is eliminated by examining which code is actually being used via important statements. CanJS has also been given a more configurable service layer.
- The StealJS 2.0 JavaScript dependency loader has been added to make debugging easier. It removes the promise-polyfill when this is not required.
DoneJS also incorporates:
- DOM helpers from the jQuery JavaScript library.
- FuncUnit functional tests.
- DocumentJS documentation engine.
The builders of DoneJS continue to pledge to improve developer experience including build times by using steal-tools build technology. Their main sponsor is the software engineering company, Bitovi.
