</div>Data, conditions & styling
- Conditional rendering:
"visible": {"auth": "signed-in"},{"roles": ["admin"]}or an expression such as"=product.stock > 0". Decided on the server: hidden elements are never sent. - Data binding:
bindtakes text from data (name,user.name,props.title,params.slug,state.cart.count);bindsbinds attributes. Containers become data-driven withdata+item. See data binding. - Styling:
classNamefor your stylesheets,stylefor CSS in JSON,statesfor hover/focus/active,animationfor entrance motion. See the style property reference. - Responsive behaviour:
responsiveapplies CSS at or below a breakpoint ({"mobile": {"padding": "12px"}}); grids also takeresponsiveColumns.
