Ender is not a JavaScript framework in the traditional sense, but a way to build other JavaScript libraries from it.
It's more a module framework for putting things together, running on Node.js by default, but with client side code also available.
Ender takes a set of given JavaScript modules, assembles them along with their dependencies and sends the code in one single deliverable file to the client.
This way developers can control what JS module gets loaded where and when, avoiding situations where large pieces of JavaScript is sent to the browser, only for a few lines to be read and executed with a purpose.
With Ender developers can rest assured the code that needs to be executed gets loaded on the page, all with a simple syntax and automatic dependency injection management.
Starting with version 2.x, besides the native modules written by developers specifically for Ender, Node.js (npm) packages can be used as well.
Documentation and usage instructions can be found in the package's README files.
What is new in this release:
- Anything npm can install, Ender can too.
- The minifier has been upgraded to Uglify 2.
- Source map support.
- Clearer understanding of your dependencies output from the CLI.
- New Module runtime object for a better require! This supports multi-file modules, internal/relative requires, requiring submodules, and better CommonJS compatibility.
Requirements:
- JavaScript enabled on client side
- Node.js for server-side environments
