@msaraiva 's example can be simplified to:
defmodule Tree do
...
@doc "The root node"
prop node, :map
def render(assigns) do
~H"""
<div>
{{ @node.name }}
<div :for={{ child <- @node.children }}>
{{ render(%{node: child}) }}
</div>
</div>
"""
end
end
Although the component cannot be recursively defined, the render/1 method can call itself recursively, with a made up assigns. This method works as long as the component has no state; because state-less component is basically just a render/1 function with maybe some pure function helpers.
I don’t know how to achieve the equivalent of recursive stateful component though. I don’t have a usage case so far.
