Widgets as S3 or R6 subclass with esm property #2

Closed keller-mark closed 5 months ago

The problem with the standalone function is there is no way to attach data values and "listen" for value changes to trigger a re-render. However R6 has the notion of setter functions that can add logic that will be performed on value assignments. S3 has something analogous

Will perhaps only be useful outside shiny context since shiny already triggers rerenders within the reactive expression
