Features

Core Components

• Observable: Enhanced ChangeNotifier implementation with value holding and smart change detection
  • Custom equality logic via changeDetector
  • reload() method to force notifications
  • emitAll option to notify even when value hasn't changed
• Scopes: Lifecycle management system for observables
  • Automatic initialization and disposal linked to widget lifecycle
  • Hierarchical scope inheritance for dependent observables
• Ctrl Mixin: Base mixin for creating controllers/view models/stores
  • mutable<T>() method to create scoped observables
  • Automatic scope management

Widgets

• CtrlWidget: Simplified widget for single state manager class
  • Automatic ctrl creation and disposal
  • Ctrl passed directly to build method
• CtrlState: Stateful widget mixin for complex scenarios
  • Support for multiple state managers via useCtrl<T>()
  • Full access to State lifecycle methods
  • Compatible with other mixins (animations, text controllers, etc.)
• Watch: Widget to observe and rebuild on observable changes

Advanced Observable Features

• update: Update complex observable objects
• transform: Create derived observables that auto-update from source
• mirror: Create read-only views of mutable observables
• hotswappable: Dynamically switch underlying observable sources
• filtered: (Lists) Create filtered observable lists
• notNull: (Lists) Remove null values from observable lists

Dependency Injection

• Built-in service locator (Locator)
  • Factory registration support
  • Singleton registration support
  • i() shortcut for dependency injection
• Custom DI integration support
  • Override resolveCtrl() in CtrlWidget
  • Pass instances directly to useCtrl() in CtrlState

Architecture

• Pattern Agnostic: Works with MVC, MVVM, MVP, and other patterns
• Cascade State Composition: Isolated state management with unidirectional data flow
• Lifecycle Safety: Automatic cleanup prevents memory leaks
