Ripple.js v1.0.0 is Live!

After months of development and refining our push-pull reactive graph, Ripple.js v1.0.0 is officially stable and ready for production.

Why we built Ripple.jsCopy Anchor Link

Most UI frameworks lock their reactivity engines behind heavy compilers or component lifecycles. If you wanted fine-grained signals in a vanilla JS class or a Node.js worker, you had to either pull in a massive UI library or settle for sub-par, glitchy event emitters.

Ripple.js extracts the exact same primitives that power modern interfaces (Signals, Computed values, and Effects) into a standalone, ~3.5KB package.

What's Included in v1.0.0?Copy Anchor Link

• Core Primitives: signal, computed, and effect.
• Advanced Control: batch for grouping updates and untrack for safe reads.
• State Management: Deeply reactive store proxies, createHistory for undo/redo, and persist for localStorage syncing.
• Framework Adapters: First-class bindings for React, Vue 3, and Svelte.

The Engineering: Glitch-Free ArchitectureCopy Anchor Link

The biggest hurdle in standalone reactivity is the "diamond problem," where a single signal update triggers a computed value to evaluate multiple times with stale intermediate state.

Ripple.js solves this using a push-pull hybrid engine:

1. Push: Mutations instantly propagate "dirty" flags down the dependency graph.
2. Pull: Computed values only actually evaluate when they are explicitly read.

This ensures zero wasted CPU cycles and perfectly consistent state reads.
