What is the difference between doop and baobab-react's decorators? #2

Hi there. Cool project. I've seen that baobab-react has some very similar decorators. What are the differences?

Thanks

Hi @eyy! You're right, the idea of DataInit and DataWatcher decorators is very similar to the root and branch of baobab-react, and the work of @Yomguithereal is a huge influence.

What is different here is that besides slightly different API we wanted to go a little bit further by introducing DataFetcher decorator and probably going more towards Flux concepts of data flow in general. Also we're thinking about not using Baobab's cursors explicitly at all and probably not bonding tight with Baobab as the only possible option for immutable state.

The bottom line: as we mentioned in README, this project is a work in progress, but we have some interesting ideas, and hopefully we'll introduce them soon.
