Default Props

While a component most often receives its props from a parent component at render time, it can be helpful to set default props in the event that a prop you expect (or require) isn't passed. To set default props, you can define them on your component instance:

import joystick from '@joystick.js/ui';

const Index = joystick.component({
  default_props: {
    name: 'Example Default Prop',
  },
  render: ({ props }) => {
    return `
      <div>
        <p>This will be set no matter what: ${props.name}</p>
      </div>
    `;
  },
});

export default Index;

API Reference

Like normal props, default_props can be set to an object of key/value pairs that will be used as fallback values on the component instance's props object.
