UI Renderer

Component that takes uiConfig JSON and renders Vue component client side

About Schema

See schema here

Events:

• We should only invoke methods in events

Directives:

• We support only if,for and editor-helpers directive as of now
• Directives are not nativelly supported in React and others so we have to avoid using directives for complex cases that's why we have limited directives we can use

Localization:

• We will localize configs backend side via string interplations (syntax not know now)
• We also have an option to introduce the whole new config if trsanslation is not enough - this allows us to change everything per language

Slots:

• We don't need traditional slots for UI composition - avoid it
• We might need some mechanics for scoped slots - maybe just attributes as it's vue specific?

UI tree:

• Every UI tree has to have only one root component
• Every UI tree node is an object
• We never use keyword "this" to point to data in UI tree

Methods:

• Methods have to be in ES5 syntax so that we support all browsers or we have to figure out some transpilation but that seems complicated

Typed value:

• In some scenarios we need to pass value (e.g. args, props, attributes...)
• We have a special object to handle type properly

{
	number: 10,
	string: "hello world",
	boolean: true,
	js: "this.isLoading ? 'Loading...' : ''", can be js expressions as string or Object, Array
}
