Feeling more like myself today after getting my ass kicked by this bug for the past few weeks and I’m finally making progress on improving Kitten’s¹ component model.

Soon, you’ll be able to implement page event handlers in an even simpler way than before. Is your connected DOM element named `pixel`? Then export an event handler called `onPixel()` on your page route and it’ll get called when that element triggers its event.

And there’s so much more coming, including a class-based page and component model with DOM-style event bubbling on the server. This should really let you make the most of the Streaming HTML² workflow in Kitten by writing event-driven GUI-like code but for a web app without really caring about the client/server separation.

Need to update the examples, test, test, test, and update docs but this had me stumped for a while now with several false starts and I feel this implementation might just be it 🤞
