Reveal SDK Web Component Wrappers Overview

Product in Beta

The Reveal SDK Web Component Wrappers are currently under development, and we welcome your feedback to help us improve for the final release.

The documentation for the Wrappers are under construciton, but we didn't want to wait until they were done before sharing.

Welcome to the Reveal SDK Web Components documentation! This project is a community-driven initiative focused on modernizing and enhancing the Reveal SDK. At its core, the Reveal SDK Web Components provide a streamlined web component wrapper around the existing jQuery-based RevealView component, simplifying the integration and use of the Reveal SDK in modern web applications.

What Are Reveal SDK Web Component Wrappers?​

The Reveal SDK Web Component Wrappers are essentially web components that wrap the existing RevealView, a jQuery-based component that powers the core data visualization features of the Reveal SDK. By encapsulating the complex functionalities of RevealView into modern web components, we provide a more intuitive and developer-friendly way to integrate Reveal's powerful capabilities into your projects. These web components abstract away the underlying jQuery implementation, allowing you to work with Reveal in a more modern and efficient way.

Why Use Reveal SDK Web Components?​

In today's fast-paced web development environment, simplicity, ease of integration, and adaptability are crucial. The Reveal SDK Web Components project addresses these needs by wrapping the existing jQuery-based functionality in modern web components, offering several key benefits:

  1. Enhanced Usability: With Reveal SDK Web Components, we simplify how you interact with the Reveal SDK. Rather than working directly with the jQuery-based RevealView, these web components offer a more accessible API. You can now integrate complex data visualization elements using straightforward HTML tags, reducing both the learning curve and development time.

  2. Seamless Integration with Frameworks: Reveal SDK Web Components are designed to work effortlessly with popular JavaScript frameworks like Angular, React, and Vue. The web component wrappers ensure that the underlying RevealView can be integrated into these frameworks without compatibility issues, allowing you to fully leverage Reveal’s features within your preferred development environment.

  3. Continuous Improvement: As part of our commitment to continuous improvement, we actively refine these web components and the underlying Reveal APIs based on community and customer feedback. This ensures that you always have access to the latest features and enhancements, helping you stay ahead in delivering powerful and responsive data visualizations.

Conclusion​

By using the Reveal SDK Web Component Wrappers, you benefit from the powerful capabilities of the jQuery-based RevealView component, but in a more modern, efficient, and developer-friendly package. These web component wrappers allow you to focus on building sophisticated data visualizations without needing to manage the complexity of the underlying framework.
