Question 1

How does component-check compare Angular and React component syntax?

Accepted Answer

It shows side-by-side code: Angular 1 uses directives with dependency injection, while React uses JSX and functional components. For example, Angular 2 employs class-based annotations, whereas React with Redux separates smart and dumb components.

Question 2

Is component-check still relevant with today's framework updates?

Accepted Answer

The core concepts of component architecture remain useful, but many examples are dated, such as Angular 2 in beta. It's best for historical context or understanding fundamental differences rather than current best practices.

Question 3

How to run the component-check examples on my machine?

Accepted Answer

Clone the repository, run npm install in each framework's directory, and use npm start to launch the dev server. Be aware of Node version issues, as noted in the README for Node v6.

Question 4

What are the main differences between Cycle.js and Redux in component-check?

Accepted Answer

Cycle.js uses reactive streams and a functional approach with observables, while Redux with React employs a centralized store and reducer pattern. The examples highlight how each handles state changes and event-driven updates.

Question 5

Can I learn CSS Modules integration from component-check?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it demonstrates CSS Modules with webpack across all frameworks, showing how to scope styles in Angular, Ember, React, and Cycle.js. However, the author cautions that it's for research and may not be ideal for production.

Question 6

How does Ember handle components compared to Angular in this project?

Accepted Answer

Ember uses Handlebars templates and a convention-based system, requiring manual template registration with webpack, while Angular uses directives or class annotations. The README notes that Ember's angle-bracket components weren't available at the time.
