Dynamic app framework

Dynamic app is a framework to offer dynamic, interactive web pages, that are exclusively build with HTML5 valid documents.

The framework is intended to manipulate data structures and thus is every input element and are all bindings related to the data element it references.

Hello world example

<label>Please enter your name:
	<input name=addressee value=world>
</label>
		
<p class=salutation>Hello {{addressee}}!.

Here we define an input element with the default value "world" and the given name. In the paragraph below it, the same data element is refered to by using the double curly braces {{}}

Hello world revised

The first example always displays the text "Hello ... !", also when no input is given. It is more helpful to the user when some instructions are given in case the addressee is not yet assigned.

For that, templates are used.These are valid HTML parts, that can be conditionally displayed.

<label>Please enter your name:
	<input name=addressee>
</label>

<p class="dynamic-template please-enter-value when addressee not available">
	Please enter your name in the input box above.

<p class="dynamic-template salutation when addressee not empty">
	Hello {{addressee}}!

These examples can be viewed live on CodePen
