Stimulus JS Roadmap - What to expect

[yourtallness]

Hello and thanks for Stimulus.js!

As a backend developer, I’m eager to explore minimalist frontend frameworks. Whatever helps one put off using a more complex JS MVC / MVVM is a good thing as far as I’m concerned.

I have read the handbook and the origin of Stimulus article and was wondering if there is a publicly available roadmap to see what direction Stimulus is heading towards.

• Any unobtrusive JS functionality planned?
• I get that Stimulus is render and transport agnostic, but is any form / field validation / ajax / modal etc related stuff in the cards?
• Will you be posting a TodoMVC reference implementation?

I understand some of the above may be out of scope.

Thanks in advance,

Mark

Some future roadmap was discussed here:

What’s planned for Stimulus 1.1

Hey everybody. I wanted to share what we have planned for the next release of Stimulus, version 1.1, so folks know where we’re headed in the near future. Please keep in mind that none of this is set in stone and we don’t have a specific timeline at the moment. Support for abstract CSS class names. It’s very common for a Stimulus controller to add, remove, or toggle CSS class names on its elements. However, hard-coding those class names in your controller makes it more difficult…
