Picnic is a small and easy to use JavaScript framework.

How does it work?

<div id="car" data-controller="car" data-color="red">
	<div data-element="name"></div> 
	<button data-element="colorButton">Change color</button>
</div>

Controller:

function Car()  
{  
	picnic.controller.call(this);  
  
	this.elements = ['name', 'colorButton'];  
	this.attributes = ['color'];  
}  
  
$.extend(Car.prototype, picnic.controller.prototype,  
{    
	init: function()  
	{
	},
  
	bindEvents: function ()  
	{
		this.on('click', this.elements.colorButton, this.changeColor);
		
		//delay
		//this.on('click', this.elements.colorButton, [this.changeColor, 100]);
		
		//propagate default event
                //this.on('click', this.elements.colorButton, this.changeColor, true);
	},
  
	setName: function (name)  
	{
		this.elements.name.html(name);
	},
  
	changeColor: function ()  
	{
		this.elements.name.css('color', this.attributes.color);
	}
});

Start Picnic:

$(document).ready(function () {  
  
	picnic.start();  
  
	//access controller
	$('#car').getController().setName('Audi Q8');  
});
