Known Limitations

This document outlines the current limitations and potential issues in eleva.js v1.2.5-alpha. I'm actively working on addressing these limitations and welcome community feedback to help prioritize improvements.

Core Framework Limitations

These limitations are considered core framework concerns that I plan to address directly in the framework:

1. Component System

Complex Component Hierarchies

  • Circular component dependencies are not properly handled
  • Component inheritance patterns are not supported

Rationale: These are fundamental architectural concerns that affect the core component system's reliability.

2. Performance

DOM Operations

  • Complex CSS selectors in scoped styles may affect rendering performance

Rationale: This is a core performance issue that directly impacts the framework's rendering engine.

Memory Management

  • Memory usage may grow with long-running applications
  • No automatic garbage collection for unused components

Rationale: These are fundamental resource management issues that affect the framework's stability.

Browser Support

  • Mobile browser optimizations needed
  • Touch event handling needs improvement

Rationale: These are core browser support issues that affect the framework's usability.

Future Improvements

I'm actively working on addressing these limitations. Here's my prioritized roadmap:

Core Framework Improvements

  1. Performance Optimizations

    • Optimize CSS selector performance
    • Improve memory management
    • Enhance component lifecycle handling

  2. Developer Experience

    • Improve error messages
    • Enhance core debugging capabilities
    • Streamline component registration

Contributing

I welcome contributions to help address these limitations. Please check the Contributing Guidelines for more information on how to get involved.

Reporting Issues

If you encounter any of these limitations or discover new ones, please:

  1. Check if it's already reported in GitHub Issues
  2. If not, create a new issue with:
    • Clear description of the limitation
    • Steps to reproduce
    • Expected vs actual behavior
    • Browser/device information
    • Code example if applicable
    • Indication of whether it's a core or plugin concern

Version History

For a detailed history of all versions, changes, and improvements, please refer to the CHANGELOG file. This document focuses on current limitations and planned improvements rather than version-specific changes.

Note: This document is actively maintained and will be updated as limitations are addressed or new ones are discovered. Last updated: April 25, 2025
