More to come!

Example

First, queue the script: <script src='https://unpkg.com/wordpress-api-wc/dist/wordpress-api.js'></script>

Finally, declare it on your site:

<wordpress-api>
  <!-- Great for mounting an app on demand -->
  <div>Loaded! Start your React/Vue/Choo/whatever app declaratively, here!</div>
</wordpress-api>

Once the component is mounted, it will begin syncing your wordpress database to a local IndexedDB. All interaction with the database will first talk to the IndexedDB, then as a fallback, it will make a network request.

Instantiation and more

<wordpress-api>
  <div>Loaded!</div>
</wordpress-api>


<script>
// This will return the instance of the API
var api = document.querySelector('wordpress-api').api();


// Or, since once the api is mounted, it adds `WordPress` to the window, you can do...
var api = window.WordPress;

// They're both references to the same instance.
// Once you've got your variable set, you can do this...

api.posts.all().then((posts) => {
  console.log(posts);
});

// or with await:
var posts = await api.posts.all();

</script>

Philosophy

It should be absurdly easy to do a Single Page App with offline access. It should be super easy to make your site super performant. You shouldn't have any challenges with interacting with IndexedDB - it should be invisible.

I absolutely ADORE Choo, and the way the team does their documentation. I did bite this readme format from their readme. It's a fantastic framework and I highly, HIGHLY recommend trying it out!
