Modelling side effects

[swastik]

Do you have any thoughts on how we could model side effects of, say, a request completing?

e.g. if I want to transition to a different URL after a request finishes.

what code are you working with?

• If you're already calling a request, you can transition to a different URL in that function body
• If "something else" is making the request, and you instead want to transition when data is provided, that'd be an effect like this

Thank you, that sounds good! In this case, will effects run only when the values they are autotracking (just value1 in that example) changes, or every time that template is rendered?

[NullVoxPopuli]

They'll run only whenever values change. The template as a whole is never rerendered. Only {{ }} zones are rerendered. (Fine grained reactivity! 🎉 )

Awesome, thank you!
