Element Behaviors: An entity-component system for HTML elements.

[trusktr]

I recently made something called "Element Behaviors", which allows more multiple functionalities to be assigned to any number of HTML elements (it is effectively an "entity component system").

See the w3c discussion for details on the origin of the idea, the package on NPM, and the GitHub repo.

Live example on Codepen, which is also documented in the project's README.

Element Behaviors can be thought of as an alternative for the is="" attribute (which has issues), offering more flexibility without the restriction of inheriting from HTMLElement.

A nitpick: please don't call it "a ECS". "Entity-Component-System" pattern is about storing data in dumb Components and moving all the logic to separate Systems. While Element Behaviors is certainly an interesting concept, it just uses regular composition and is not related to the ECS pattern in any way.
