Built-In Components

Idyll ships with a handful of components that handle common tasks. They are broken into five categories: input, layout, logic, presentation, and helpers.

Input

The components are used to accept reader input and update variables in response.

Layout

These components help manage page layout, for example putting text in the Aside component will render it in the article margin instead of inline with the rest of your text.

Logic

These components help add logic like conditionally showing components or looping over arrays.

Presentation

These components render something to the screen, for example the Chart component takes data as input and can display several types of charts.

Helpers

These components don't affect the page content, but help with common tasks. The Analytics component makes it easy to add Google Analytics to your page.
