Omit initialVariables render nothing #49

Closed gutenye closed 8 years ago

gutenye commented 8 years ago

Given

Transmit.createContainer(App, {
  // initialVariables: {}  // without it
  fragements: { ... }
})

The page does not render anything, nor any errors.

I really need to document this somewhere. Containers with initialVariables are so-called "root containers" and their fragments are fetched at start. Containers without initialVariables will never be automatically fetched. It's by design.

Is this concept of "root containers" new with version three of Transmit? Have its definition and requirements been documented yet? Thank you.
