"Signals is a simple idea with massive power. In one fell swoop, Signals provides reactivity while keeping state simple, even in large applications. That's why the Signals pattern has been adopted for inclusion in Solid, Svelte, and Angular. This article introduces Signals and demonstrates its fresh approach to state management, bringing new life to the JavaScript front end. Introducing the Signals pattern The Signals pattern was first introduced in JavaScript's Knockout framework."
"This is a pure expression of reactivity, sometimes called "fine-grained" reactivity. It is almost magical how individual signals can update the output of a value without requiring any intervention from the developer. The "magic" is really just an application of functional programming, but it has big benefits for an application architecture. The Signals pattern eliminates the need for complex rendering checks in the framework engine."
Signals implement fine-grained reactivity by making values notify dependents when they change, so updates are pushed only to places that need them. Signals reduce runtime rendering work by eliminating broad diffing and complex render checks used by virtual DOM approaches. Signals originated in Knockout and are being adopted by Solid, Svelte, and Angular because they keep state simple and scalable. Signals apply functional programming principles to let individual values update outputs without developer intervention. Signals can simplify state management across components, reduce the need for centralized stores, and provide a universal primitive usable anywhere in an application.
