Breeze.js is a lightweight JavaScript micro-library for building interactive UI widgets using a virtual DOM. It’s designed to make creating embedded components (like chat widgets or popups) simple, fast, and modular — without requiring a full framework like React or Vue.
🧠 Core Concepts Virtual DOM: Breeze uses a minimal virtual DOM to manage UI updates efficiently.
h() Function: A hyperscript function to declaratively define UI elements.
render(): Syncs your component tree with the real DOM.
No Build Tools Required: Works with vanilla JavaScript out of the box.
✨ Why Use Breeze? Great for embedding simple UI widgets.
Minimal size & zero dependencies.
Fast render cycles via diffing and patching.
Familiar JSX-like element creation (h('div', { className: 'box' }, 'Text')).
Breeze.js is ideal for developers who need a lightweight framework to build responsive and interactive web applications. Key use cases include:
- Dynamic Content Updates: Dynamically update elements in the DOM without the overhead of heavy frameworks.
- Layered Layouts: Organize your application's interface with layered elements for clearer structure and visual hierarchy.
- State-Driven UI: Build state-driven applications with ease, where UI updates are triggered by changes in the application's state.
- And other lightweight web applications.
You can install Breeze.js via npm:
npm i breezejs-web
import { h } from './node_modules/breezejs/src/h.js';
// Create a parent div and add two h1 elements to it
h(document.body, 'div', { class: 'container' }, [
h(document.body, 'h1', {}, "Hello"),
h(document.body, 'h1', {}, "World")
]);
// Create a button with click event
h(document.body, 'button', { class: 'btn' }, 'Click Me', 'click', () => {
alert('Button clicked!');
});
