onClicke

onClicke is a fictional JavaScript library created for illustration of declarative click-event handling in web development. It describes a design that emphasizes accessibility, simplicity, and predictable behavior.

The core idea is to allow developers to bind click handlers through data attributes or simple registries, with event delegation that works for dynamically added elements and automatic cleanup when DOM nodes are removed.

Design features include declarative binding via data-onclick attributes, a small, well-defined API, keyboard activation support, and graceful degradation for non-JS environments. The library aims for cross-browser compatibility and a minimal runtime footprint, prioritizing progressive enhancement.

Usage context: The typical workflow involves including the onClicke runtime in a page and annotating interactive elements with data-onclick entries that reference named handlers defined in a central registry. Because onClicke is a hypothetical example, it is used in discussions and tutorials to illustrate patterns rather than as a ready-made production solution.

In wiki-style discussions, onClicke serves to compare approaches to event binding, such as inline handlers, addEventListener, and modern frameworks, highlighting trade-offs between verbosity, accessibility, and dynamic content handling.
