meh`: ah so this is building a front end from scratch right?
<meh`>
ceej, you can use it to build a whole frontend or just use the components
<ceej>
what I’m doing is working off a design/html that is completely finished and making it completely dynamic from never toughing the frontend code. that way the designer can make updates and changes without a server or knowing any scripting at all
<ceej>
so the design/html are completely separate. you just drag his completed html/css site or template from themeforest.net and make it completely dynamic splitting it up into components
<ceej>
into your public folder*
<meh`>
ceej, I see
<meh`>
yeah, lissio is not for you then
<ceej>

lissio/master a3cfd7e meh: README: minor updates
<ceej>
what I’m doing right now is the events part, the client events will be triggered by websockets and the server side will get triggered directly but using the same code base
<ceej>
the reason I need to access the already initialized component client side is because the cache was generated server side by parsing the html on boot with nokogiri
<ceej>
if you’re interested I can make a demo site and push the code to github once I’m done
<meh`>
sure
<ceej>
we were already using the component structure before, but we didn’t have live updating yet and volt inspired me to use opal :)
<ceej>
it will function very similarly to volt but take more of a backbone approach
<ceej>
you’ll be able to use any db/nosql backend as all queries/data is process on the server
<ceej>
then similar to backbone, you’ll define methods to update the dom
<ceej>
meh`: does that make any sense? lol :)
<meh`>
yeah, I don't like the design but I get the need
<ceej>
yee… I do a lot of b2b stuff so the less magic the better. we only finally just dropped support for ie7 :/
<ceej>
we still have to support ie8+ ;(
<ceej>
meh`: I see you joined github in 2008 too :)
<meh`>
yeah
