Please consider Angular 2's Renderer API

[PatrickJS]

There's a better way

react-native-renderer server_dom_renderer angular2/src/render

the api you're looking for is something like

@FamousComponent({
      tree: '<node id="foo" class="bar"></node>',
      behaviors: {
         '#foo': {
            'position':[250,50],
            'size': [100,100]
         },
         '.bar': {
            'style': {
              'background-color': 'red'
            }
         }
      }
})
export class FaMesh {

}

@gdi2290 Thanks for pointing in this direction, I like it! I'm very busy ATM at work and trying to organize a community fork of Famous. If you want to submit a pull request with this working I would review and probably integrate it. I'm curious to see if this approach can make it possible to insert Angular templates and maintain property and event binding in a rendered Famous DOMElement.

@steveblue can I ask why you're doing a community fork of Famous? I haven't been up to date on Famous news

Take a look in the famous.org Community Slack #general room August 18th. Many people have felt the company, probably due to poor leadership.

ANgular operates on the HTML present in the DOM right (like ANgular 1.0, where it'd start working off of what exists in DOM)?

If so, I'd rather write famous components that way, in the HTML that goes directly to the DOM, not as Framework style components.

@gdi2290 8 of the core team left Famous. The two main guys that started Framework left. At least 3 of Engine's WebGL team left. Our main community guy Myles (@thealphanerd) left. This all happened at once.

[PatrickJS]

yeah I heard, Angular can work without the DOM and does so in order for it to run in a web worker/server/native

[speigg]

@trusktr how do you know who left Famous? Do you know why they left?

[trusktr]

@speigg I'm not entirely sure. I just know they did. It's been news floating around in Slack, plus a couple friends in Famous had said things were going to shift so they wanted to leave before that happened.

[PatrickJS]

ya I hear there is only 6 people left
