Wunderbar JQuery filter
I got a suggestion to look into React.js, a JavaScript library which is focused on the problemspace that Angular.js’s directive addresses.
One of the ways React.js facilitates the creation of web components is via JSX which mixes “XML” with JavaScript. The “XML” is “desugared” into React.DOM calls.
Based on this idea, I created a Wunderbar jquery filter to “desugar” Wunderbar calls into JQuery calls. The tests show some of the conversions. I also updated my Bootstrap modal dialog directive to make use of this: before => after.
