Sirius 6.1 should be released (along with a corresponding Obeo Designer CE ) right before EclipseCon Europe 2018 . This version is mostly about stabilisation of previous work with some nice new features as an extra bonus! We couldn't resist in sharing what's new before ECon EU. Discover them in this series of posts (see also part 1  and part 2 ), and come see us at EclipseCon to learn about the pr...

Now that have seen how to create stateless and stateful React components , we are going to see how to handle DOM events with a class-based component. You can handle events with React in a similar fashion as with DOM elements with some minor differences. With JSX, you will have to use properties using the camel-case version of the name of the event that you want to handle. On top of that, you won’t...

After a first part where we have seen how to get move from vanilla JavaScript to React, let’s see how we can create real React components. In order to introduce some dynamicity in our React code, we would like to execute functions to compute some JSX instead of relying only on static JSX code. We are lucky since React.createElement can take not only the name of a standard element (like div or h1 )...

React is a JavaScript framework used to build user interfaces. It can be used to create JavaScript applications by manipulating dynamically the content of the page. The browser already provides an API to create elements in the page, the DOM, so newcomers may wonder what does React bring to the table and how it relates to the DOM. Vanilla JavaScript and the DOM In JavaScript, just like in most prog...

One of the main benefits of diagrams is that they can make it very easy to quickly grasp the overall structure of a model. As the saying goes “a picture is worth a thousand words”. However this is only true if the layout of the diagram is actually good. Laying out large diagrams manually can be very cumbersome, so Eclipse Sirius has always supported automatic diagram layout (through the “ Arrange ...
