+- a small frontend router
 
-## OWL's design principles
+Owl components are defined with ES6 classes, they use QWeb templates, an underlying
+virtual dom, integrates beautifully with hooks, and the rendering is asynchronous.
+
+**Try it online!** An online playground is available at [https://odoo.github.io/owl/playground](https://odoo.github.io/owl/playground) to let you experiment with the Owl framework. There
+are some code examples to showcase some interesting features.
+
+## Example
+
+Here is a short example to illustrate interactive components:
+
+```javascript
+import { Component, QWeb, useState } from "owl";
+import { xml } from "owl/tags";
+
+class Counter extends Component {
+  static template = xml`
+    <button t-on-click="increment">
+      Click Me! [<t t-esc="state.value"/>]
+    </button>`;
+
+  state = useState({ value: 0 });
+
+  increment() {
+    this.state.value++;
+  }
+}
+
+class App extends Component {
+  static template = xml`
+    <div>
+      <span>Hello Owl</span>
+      <Counter />
+    </div>`;
+
+  static components = { Counter };
+}
+
+const app = new App({ qweb: new QWeb() });
+app.mount(document.body);
+```
+
+Note that the counter component is made reactive with the [`useState`](doc/hooks.md#usestate)
+hook. Also, all examples here uses the `xml` helper to define inline templates.
+But this is not mandatory, many applications will load templates separately.
+

+## Quick Overview
+
+Owl components in an application are used to define a (dynamic) tree of components.
+
+```
+        Root
+        /   \
+       A     B
+      / \
+     C   D
+```
+
+**Environment:** the root component is special: it is created with an environment,
+which should contain a `QWeb` instance. The environment is then automatically
+propagated to each sub components (and accessible in the `this.env` property).
+
+```js
+const env = { qweb: new QWeb() };
+const app = new App(env);
+app.mount(document.body);
+```
+
+The environment is mostly static. Each application is free to add anything to
+the environment, which is very useful, since this can be accessed by each sub
+component. Some good use case for that is some configuration keys, session
+information or generic services (such as doing rpcs, or accessing local storage).
+Doing it this way means that components are easily testable: we can simply
+create a test environment with mock services.
+
+**State:** each component can manage its own local state. It is a simple ES6
+class, there are no special rules:
+
+```js
+class Counter extends Component {
+  static template = xml`
     <button t-on-click="increment">
       Click Me! [<t t-esc="state.value"/>]
     </button>`;
@@ -45,42 +155,105 @@ class ClickCounter extends owl.Component {
 
   increment() {
     this.state.value++;
+    this.render();
+  }
+}
+```
+
+The example above shows a component with a local state. Note that since there
+is nothing magical to the `state` object, we need to manually call the `render`
+function whenever we update it. This can quickly become annoying (and not
+efficient if we do it too much). There is a better way: using the `useState`
+hook, which transforms an object into a reactive version of itself:
+
+```js
+const { useState } = owl.hooks;
+
+class Counter extends Component {
+  static template = xml`
+    <button t-on-click="increment">
+      Click Me! [<t t-esc="state.value"/>]
+    </button>`;
+
+  state = useState({ value: 0 });
+
+  increment() {
+    this.state.value++;
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Props:** sub components often needs some information from their parents. This
+is done by adding the required information to the template. This will then be
+accessible by the sub component in the `props` object. Note that there is an
+important rule here: the information contained in the `props` object is not
+owned by the sub component, and should never be modified.
+
+```js
+class Child extends Component {
+  static template = xml`<div>Hello <t t-esc="props.name"/></div>`;
+}
+
+class Parent extends Component {
+  static template = xml`
+    <div>
+        <Child name="'Owl'" />
+        <Child name="'Framework'" />
+    </div>`;
+  static components = { Child };
+}
+```
+
+**Communication:** there are multiple ways to communicate information between
+components. However, the two most important ways are the following:
+
+- from parent to children: by using `props`,
+- from a children to one of its parent: by triggering events.
+
+The following example illustrate both mechanisms:
+
+```js
+class OrderLine extends Component {
+  static template = xml`
+    <div t-on-click="add">
+        <div><t t-esc="props.line.name"/></div>
+        <div>Quantity: <t t-esc="props.line.quantity"/></div>
+    </div>`;
+
+  add() {
+    this.trigger("add-to-order", { line: props.line });
   }
 }
 
-const qweb = new owl.QWeb();
-const counter = new ClickCounter({ qweb });
-counter.mount(document.body);
+class Parent extends Component {
+  static template = xml`
+    <div t-on-add-to-order="addToOrder">
+        <OrderLine
+            t-foreach="orders"
+            t-as="line"
+            line="line" />
+    </div>`;
+  static components = { OrderLine };
+  orders = useState([{ id: 1, name: "Coffee", quantity: 0 }, { id: 2, name: "Tea", quantity: 0 }]);
+
+  addToOrder(event) {
+    const line = event.detail.line;
+    line.quantity++;
+  }
+}
 ```
 
-More interesting examples can be found on the [playground](https://odoo.github.io/owl/playground) application.
+In this example, the `OrderLine` component trigger a `add-to-order` event. This
+will generate a DOM event which will bubble along the DOM tree. It will then be
+intercepted by the parent component, which will then get the line (from the
+`detail` key) and then increment its quantity. See the section on [event handling](doc/component.md#event-handling)
+for more details on how events work.

+Note that this example would have also worked if the `OrderLine` component
+directly modifies the `line` object. However, this is not a good practice: this
+only works because the `props` object received by the child component is reactive,
+so the child component is then coupled to the parents implementation.

+The `t-transition` directive is here to help us. It works on html elements and
+on components, by adding and removing some css classes.
+
+To perform useful transition effects, whenever an element appears or disappears,
+it is necessary to add/remove some css style or class at some precise moment in
+the lifetime of a node. Since this is not easy to do by hand, Owl `t-transition`
+directive is there to help.
+
+Whenever a node has a `t-transition` directive, with a `name` value, the following
+will happen:
+
+At node insertion:
+
+- the css classes `name-enter` and `name-enter-active` will be added directly
+  when the node is inserted into the DOM,
+- on the next animation frame: the css class `name-enter` will be removed and the
+  class `name-enter-to` will be added (so they can be used to trigger css
+  transition effects),
+- the css class `name-enter-active` will be removed whenever a css transition

+
+At node destruction:

+  can be used to trigger css transition effects),
+- the css class `name-leave-active` will be removed whenever a css transition
+  ends. Only then will the element be removed from the DOM.
+
+For example, a simple fade in/out effect can be done with this:

+The `t-transition` directive can be applied on a node element or on a component.

+## Overview
+
+Hooks were popularised by React as a way to solve the following issues:
+
+- help reusing stateful logic between components
+- help organizing code by feature in complex components
+- use state in functional components, without writing a class.
+
+Owl hooks serve the same purpose, except that they work for class components
+(note: React hooks do not work on class components, and maybe because of that,
+there seems to be the misconception that hooks are in opposition to class. This
+is clearly not true, as shown by Owl hooks).
+
+Hooks works beautifully with Owl components: they solve the problems mentioned
+above, and in particular, they are the perfect way to make your component
+reactive.
+
+## Example: mouse position
+
+Here is the classical example of a non trivial hook to track the mouse position.
+
+```js
+const { useState, onMounted, onWillUnmount } = owl.hooks;
+
+// We define here a custom behaviour: this hook tracks the state of the mouse
+// position
+function useMouse() {
+  const position = useState({ x: 0, y: 0 });
+
+  function update(e) {
+    position.x = e.clientX;
+    position.y = e.clientY;
+  }
+  onMounted(() => {
+    window.addEventListener("mousemove", update);
+  });
+  onWillUnmount(() => {
+    window.removeEventListener("mousemove", update);
+  });
+
+  return position;
+}
+
+// Main root component
+class App extends owl.Component {
+  static template = xml`
+    <div t-name="App">
+      <div>Mouse: <t t-esc="mouse.x"/>, <t t-esc="mouse.y"/></div>
+    </div>`;
+
+  // this hooks is bound to the 'mouse' property.
+  mouse = useMouse();
+}
+```
+
+Note that we use the prefix `use` for hooks, just like in React. This is just
+a convention.
+
+## Example: autofocus
+
+Hooks can be combined to create the desired effect. For example, the following
+hook combines the `useRef` hook with the `onPatched` and `onMounted` functions
+to create an easy way to focus an input whenever it appears in the DOM:
+
+```js
+function useAutofocus(name) {
+  let ref = useRef(name);
+  let isInDom = false;
+  function updateFocus() {
+    if (!isInDom && ref.el) {
+      isInDom = true;
+      ref.el.focus();
+    } else if (isInDom && !ref.el) {
+      isInDom = false;
+    }
+  }
+  onPatched(updateFocus);
+  onMounted(updateFocus);
+}
+```
+
+This hook takes the name of a valid `t-ref` directive, which should be present
+in the template. It then checks whenever the component is mounted or patched if
+the reference is not valid, and in this case, it will focus the node element.
+This hook can be used like this:
+
+```js
+class SomeComponent extends Component {
+  static template = xml`
+    <div>
+        <input />
+        <input t-ref="myinput"/>
+    </div>`;
+
+  constructor(...args) {
+    super(...args);
+    useAutofocus("myinput");
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Reference
+
+### One rule
+
+There is only one rule: every hook for a component have to be called in the
+constructor (or in class fields):
+
+```js
+// ok
+class SomeComponent extends Component {
+  state = useState({ value: 0 });
+}
+
+// also ok
+class SomeComponent extends Component {
+  constructor(...args) {
+    super(...args);
+    this.state = useState({ value: 0 });
+  }
+}
+
+// not ok: this is executed after the constructor is called
+class SomeComponent extends Component {
+  async willStart() {
+    this.state = useState({ value: 0 });
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### `useState`
+
+The `useState` hook is certainly the most important hooks for Owl components:
+this is what enables component to be reactive, to react to state change.
+
+The `useState` hook has to be given an object or an array, and will return
+an observed version of it (using a `Proxy`).
+
+```javascript
+const { useState } = owl.hooks;
+
+class Counter extends owl.Component {
+  static template = xml`
+    <button t-on-click="increment">
+        Click Me! [<t t-esc="state.value"/>]
+    </button>`;
+
+  state = useState({ value: 0 });
+
+  increment() {
+    this.state.value++;
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### `onMounted`
+
+`onMounted` is not an user hook, but is a building block designed to help make useful
+abstractions. `onMounted` registers a callback, which will be called when the component
+is mounted (see example on top of this page).
+
+### `onWillUnmount`
+
+`onWillUnmount` is not an user hook, but is a building block designed to help make useful
+abstractions. `onWillUnmount` registers a callback, which will be called when the component
+is unmounted (see example on top of this page).
+
+
+### `onWillPatch`
+
+`onWillPatch` is not an user hook, but is a building block designed to help make useful
+abstractions. `onWillPatch` registers a callback, which will be called just
+before the component patched.
+
+### `onPatched`
+
+`onPatched` is not an user hook, but is a building block designed to help make useful
+abstractions. `onPatched` registers a callback, which will be called just
+after the component patched.
+
+### `useRef`
+
+The `useRef` hook is useful when we need a way to interact with some inside part
+of a component, rendered by Owl. It can work either on a DOM node, or on a component,
+tagged by the `t-ref` directive:
+
+```xml
+<div>
+    <div t-ref="someDiv"/>
+    <SubComponent t-ref="someComponent"/>
+</div>
+```
+
+In this example, the component will be able to access the `div` and the component
+`SubComponent` using the `useRef` hook:
+
+```js
+class Parent extends Component {
+  subRef = useRef("someComponent");
+  divRef = useRef("someDiv");
+
+  someMethod() {
+    // here, if component is mounted, refs are active:
+    // - this.divRef.el is the div HTMLElement
+    // - this.subRef.comp is the instance of the sub component
+  }
+}
+```
+
+As shown by the example above, html elements are accessed by using the `el`
+key, and components references are accessed with `comp`.
+
+Note: if used on a component, the reference will be set in the `refs`
+variable between `willPatch` and `patched`.
+
+The `t-ref` directive also accepts dynamic values with string interpolation
+(like the [`t-attf-`](qweb.md#dynamic-attributes) and
+`t-component` directives). For example,
+
+```xml
+<div t-ref="component_{{someCondition ? '1' : '2'}}"/>
+```
+
+Here, the references needs to be set like this:
+
+```js
+this.ref1 = useRef("component_1");
+this.ref2 = useRef("component_2");
+```
+
+References are only guaranteed to be active while the parent component is mounted.
+If this is not the case, accessing `el` or `comp` on it will return `null`.
+
+### `useSubEnv`
+
+The environment is sometimes useful to share some common information between
+all components.  But sometimes, we want to *scope* that knowledge to a subtree.
+
+For example, if we have a form view component, maybe we would like to make some
+`model` object available to all sub component, but not to the whole application.
+This is where the `useSubEnv` hook may be useful: it let a component add some
+information to the environment in a way that only the component and its children
+can access it:
+
+```js
+class FormComponent extends Component {
+  constructor(...args) {
+    super(...args);
+    const model = makeModel();
+    useSubEnv({ model });
+  }
+}
+```
+
+The `useSubEnv` takes one argument: an object which contains some key/value that
+will be added to the parent environment. Note that it will extend, not replace
+the parent environment.  And of course, the parent environment will not be
+affected.

 ## Overview
 
 [QWeb](https://www.odoo.com/documentation/12.0/reference/qweb.html) is the primary templating engine used by Odoo. It is based on the XML format, and used
-mostly to generate html. In OWL, QWeb templates are compiled into functions that
-generate a virtual dom representation of the html.
+mostly to generate HTML. In OWL, QWeb templates are compiled into functions that
+generate a virtual dom representation of the HTML.
 
 Template directives are specified as XML attributes prefixed with `t-`, for instance `t-if` for conditionals, with elements and other attributes being rendered directly.
 
 To avoid element rendering, a placeholder element `<t>` is also available, which executes its directive but doesn’t generate any output in and of itself.
 
-The QWeb implementation in the OWL project is slightly different. It compiles
-templates into functions that output a virtual DOM instead of a string. This is
-necessary for the component system. In addition, it has a few extra directives
-(see [OWL Specific Extensions](#owlspecificextensions))
+```xml
+<div>
+    <span t-if="somecondition">Some string</span>
+    <ul t-else="1">
+        <li t-foreach="messages" t-as="message">
+            <t t-esc="message">
+        </li>
+    </ul>
+</div>
+```
 
+The QWeb class in the OWL project is an implementation of that specification
+with a few interesting points:
 
-## QWeb Specification

+  string. This is necessary for the component system.

+
+## QWeb Engine
+
+This section is about the javascript code that implements the `QWeb` specification.
+Owl exports a `QWeb` class in `owl.QWeb`. To use it, it just needs to be
+instantiated:
+
+```js
+const qweb = new owl.QWeb();
+```
+
+It's API is quite simple:
+
+- **`constructor(data)`**: constructor. Takes an optional string to add initial
+  templates (see `addTemplates` for more information on format of the string).
+
+  ```js
+  const qweb = new owl.QWeb(TEMPLATES);
+  ```
+
+- **`addTemplate(name, xmlStr, allowDuplicate)`**: add a specific template.
+
+  ```js
+  qweb.addTemplate("mytemplate", "<div>hello</div>");
+  ```
+
+  If the optional `allowDuplicate` is set to `true`, then `QWeb` will simply return whenever a template is added for a second time. Otherwise, `QWeb` will crash.
+
+- **`addTemplates(xmlStr)`**: add a list of templates (identified by `t-name`
+  attribute).
+
+  ```js
+  const TEMPLATES = `
+    <templates>
+      <div t-name="App" class="main">main</div>
+      <div t-name="OtherComponent">other component</div>
+    </templates>`;
+  qweb.addTemplates(TEMPLATES);
+  ```
+
+- **`render(name, context, extra)`**: renders a template. This returns a `vnode`,
+  which is a virtual representation of the DOM (see [vdom doc](vdom.md)).
+
+  ```js
+  const vnode = qweb.render("App", component);
+  ```
+
+- **`renderToString(name, context)`**: renders a template, but returns an html
+  string.
+
+  ```js
+  const str = qweb.renderToString("someTemplate", somecontext);
+  ```
+
+- **`registerTemplate(name, template)`**: static function to register an global
+  QWeb template. This is useful for commonly used components accross the
+  application, and for making a template available to an application without
+  having a reference to the actual QWeb instance.
+
+  ```js
+  QWeb.registerTemplate("mytemplate", `<div>some template`);
+  ```
+
+- **`registerComponent(name, Component)`**: static function to register an OWL Component
+  to QWeb's global registry. Globally registered Components can be used in
+  templates (see the `t-component` directive). This is useful for commonly used
+  components accross the application.
+
+  ```js
+  class Dialog extends owl.Component { ... }
+  QWeb.registerComponent("Dialog", Dialog);
+
+  ...
+
+  class ParentComponent extends owl.Component { ... }
+  qweb.addTemplate("ParentComponent", "<div><Dialog/></div>");
+  ```
+
+In some way, a `QWeb` instance is the core of an Owl application. It is the only
+mandatory element of an [environment](component.md#environment). As such, it
+has an extra responsability: it can act as an event bus for internal communication
+between Owl classes. This is the reason why `QWeb` actually extends [EventBus](event_bus.md).
+
+## Reference
+
+We define in this section the specification of how `QWeb` templates should be
+rendered. Note that we only document here the standard QWeb specification. Owl
+specific extensions are documented in various other parts of the documentation.
+
+### White Spaces
+
+White spaces in a templates are handled in a special way:
+
+- consecutive whitespaces are always condensed to a single whitespace
+- if a whitespace-only text node contains a linebreak, it is ignored
+- the previous rules do not apply if we are in a `<pre>` tag
+
+### Root Nodes
+
+For many reasons, Owl QWeb templates should have a single root node. More
+precisely, the result of a template rendering should have a single root node:
+
+```xml
+<!–– not ok: two root nodes ––>
+<t>
+    <div>foo</div>
+    <div>bar</div>
+</t>
+
+<!–– ok: result has one single root node ––>
+<t>
+    <div t-if="someCondition">foo</div>
+    <span t-else="1">bar</span>
+</t>
+```
+
+Extra root nodes will actually be ignored (even though they will be rendered
+in memory).
+
+Note: this does not apply to subtemplates (see the `t-call` directive). In that
+case, they will be inlined in the main template, and can actually have many
+root nodes.
+
+### Expression Evaluation
+
+QWeb expressions are strings that will be processed at compile time. Each variable in
+the javascript expression will be replaced by a lookup in the context (so, the
+component). For example, `a + b.c(d)` will be converted into:
+
+```js
+context["a"] + context["b"].c(context["d"]);
+```
+
+It is useful to explain the various rules that applies on these expressions:
+
+1. it should be a simple expression which returns a value. It cannot be a statement.
+
+   ```xml
+   <div><p t-if="1 + 2 === 3">ok</p></div>
+   ```
+
+   is valid, but the following is not valid:
+
+   ```xml
+   <div><p t-if="console.log(1)">NOT valid</p></div>
+   ```
+
+2. it can use anything in the rendering context (typically, the component):
+
+   ```xml
+   <p t-if="user.birthday === today()">Happy bithday!</p>
+   ```
+
+   is valid, and will read the `user` object from the context, and call the
+   `today` function.
+
+3. it can use a few special operators to avoid using symbols such as `<`, `>`,
+   `&` or `|`. This is useful to make sure that we still write valid XML.
+
+   | Word  | will be replaced by |
+   | ----- | ------------------- |
+   | `and` | `&&`                |
+   | `or`  | `\|\|`              |
+   | `gt`  | `>`                 |
+   | `gte` | `>=`                |
+   | `lt`  | `<`                 |
+   | `lte` | `<=`                |
+
+   So, one can write this:
+
+   ```xml
+   <div><p t-if="10 + 2 gt 5">ok</p></div>
+   ```

-
-### `t-on` directive
-
-### Component: `t-widget`, `t-props`
-
-### `t-ref` directive
-
-### `t-key` directive
-
-Even though Owl tries to be as declarative as possible, some DOM state is still
-locked inside the DOM: for example, the scrolling state, the current user selection,
-the focused element or the state of an input. This is why we use a virtual dom
-algorithm to keep the actual DOM node as much as possible.  However, this is
-sometimes not enough, and we need to help Owl decide if an element is actually
-the same, or is different. The `t-key` directive is used to give an identity to an element.
-
-There are three main use cases:
-
-- *elements in a list*:
-  ```xml
-    <span t-foreach="todos" t-as="todo" t-key="todo.id">
-        <t t-esc="todo.text"/>
-    </span>
-  ```
-
-- *`t-if`/`t-else`*
-
-- *animations*: give a different identity to a component.  Ex: thread id with
-animations on add/remove message.
-
-### `t-transition` directive
-
-To perform useful transition effects, whenever an element appears or disappears,
-it is necessary to add/remove some css style or class at some precise moment in
-the lifetime of a node.  Since this is not easy to do by hand, Owl `t-transition`
-directive is there to help.
-
-Whenever a node has a `t-transition` directive, with a `name` value, the following
-will happen:
-
-At node creation:
-
-- the css classes `name-enter` and `name-enter-active` will be added before the
-  node is added to the DOM,
-- on the next animation frame: the css class `name-enter` will be removed and the
-  class `name-enter-to` will be added (so they can be used to trigger css
-  transition effects),
-- the css class `name-enter-active` will be removed whenever a css transition
-  ends.
-
-At node destruction:
-- the css classes `name-leave` and `name-leave-active` will be added before the
-  node is removed to the DOM,
-- the css class `name-leave` will be removed on the next animation frame (so it
-  can be used to trigger css transition effects),
-- the css class `name-leave-active` will be removed whenever a css transition
-  ends. Only then will the element be removed from the DOM.
-
-For example, a simple fade in/out effect can be done with this:
+There is another way to format a string attribute: the `t-attf-` directive. With
+it, you get string interpolation:
 
 ```xml
-<div>
-    <div t-if="state.flag" class="square" t-transition="fade">Hello</div>
+<div t-attf-foo="a {{value1}} is {{value2}} of {{value3}} ]"/>
+<!-- result if values are set to 1,2 and 3: <div foo="a 0 is 1 of 2 ]"></div> -->
+```
+
+### Loops
+
+QWeb has an iteration directive `t-foreach` which take an expression returning the
+collection to iterate on, and a second parameter `t-as` providing the name to use
+for the current item of the iteration:
+
+```xml
+<t t-foreach="[1, 2, 3]" t-as="i">
+    <p><t t-esc="i"/></p>
+</t>
+```
+
+will be rendered as:
+
+```xml
+<p>1</p>
+<p>2</p>
+<p>3</p>
+```
+
+Like conditions, `t-foreach` applies to the element bearing the directive’s attribute, and
+
+```xml
+<p t-foreach="[1, 2, 3]" t-as="i">
+    <t t-esc="i"/>
+</p>
+```
+
+is equivalent to the previous example.
+
+`t-foreach` can iterate on an array (the current item will be the current value)
+or an object (the current item will be the current key).
+
+In addition to the name passed via t-as, `t-foreach` provides a few other
+variables for various data points (note: `$as` will be replaced by the name
+passed to `t-as`):
+
+- `$as_value`: the current iteration value, identical to `$as` for lists and
+  integers, but for objects, it provides the value (where `$as` provides the key)
+- `$as_index`: the current iteration index (the first item of the iteration has index 0)
+- `$as_first`: whether the current item is the first of the iteration
+  (equivalent to `$as_index == 0`)
+- `$as_last`: whether the current item is the last of the iteration
+  (equivalent to `$as_index + 1 == $as_size`), requires the iteratee’s size be
+  available
+
+These extra variables provided and all new variables created into the `t-foreach`
+are only available in the scope of the `t-foreach`. If the variable exists outside
+the context of the `t-foreach`, the value is copied at the end of the foreach
+into the global context.
+
+```xml
+<t t-set="existing_variable" t-value="False"/>
+<!-- existing_variable now False -->
+
+<p t-foreach="Array(3)" t-as="i">
+    <t t-set="existing_variable" t-value="True"/>
+    <t t-set="new_variable" t-value="True"/>
+    <!-- existing_variable and new_variable now True -->
+</p>
+
+<!-- existing_variable always True -->
+<!-- new_variable undefined -->
+```
+
+### Rendering Sub Templates
+
+QWeb templates can be used for top level rendering, but they can also be used
+from within another template (to avoid duplication or give names to parts of
+templates), using the `t-call` directive:
+
+```xml
+<div t-name="other-template">
+    <p><t t-value="var"/></p>
+</div>
+
+<div t-name="main-template">
+    <t t-set="var" t-value="owl"/>
+    <t t-call="other-template"/>
 </div>
 ```
 
-```css
-.fade-enter-active, .fade-leave-active {
-    transition: opacity .5s;
-}
-.fade-enter, .fade-leave-to {
-    opacity: 0;
-}
+will be rendered as `<div><p>owl</p></div>`. This example shows that the sub
+template is rendered with the execution context of the parent. The sub template
+is actually inlined in the main template, but in a sub scope: variables defined
+in the sub template do not escape.
+
+Sometimes, one might want to pass information to the sub template. In that case,
+the content of the body of the `t-call` directive is available as a special
+magic variable `0`:
+
+```xml
+<t t-name="other-template">
+    This template was called with content:
+    <t t-raw="0"/>
+</t>
+
+<div t-name="main-template">
+    <t t-call="other-template">

+## Overview
+
+It is often useful to organize an application around urls. If the application is
+a single page application, then we need a way to manage those urls in the browser.
+This is why there are many different routers for different frameworks. A generic
+router can do the job just fine, but a specialized router for Owl can give a
+better developer experience.
+
+The Owl router support the following features:
+
+- `history` or `hash` mode
+- declarative routes
+- route redirection
+- navigation guards
+- parameterized routes
+- a `<Link/>` component
+- a `<RouteComponent/>` component
+
+Note that it is still in early stage of developments, and there are probably
+still some issues.
+
+## Example
+
+To use the Owl router, there are some steps that needs to be done:
+
+- declare some routes
+- create a router
+- add it to the environment
+
+```js
+async function protectRoute({ env, to }) {
+  if (!env.session.authUser) {
+    env.session.setNextRoute(to.name);
+    return { to: "SIGN_IN" };
+  }
+  return true;
+}
+
+export const ROUTES = [
+  { name: "LANDING", path: "/", component: Landing },
+  { name: "TASK", path: "/tasks/{{id}}", component: Task },
+  { name: "SIGN_UP", path: "/signup", component: SignUp },
+  { name: "SIGN_IN", path: "/signin", component: SignIn },
+  { name: "ADMIN", path: "/admin", component: Admin, beforeRouteEnter: protectRoute },
+  { name: "ACCOUNT", path: "/account", component: Account, beforeRouteEnter: protectRoute },
+  { name: "UNKNOWN", path: "*", redirect: { to: "LANDING" } }
+];
+
+function makeEnvironment() {
+    ...
+    const env = { qweb };
+    env.session = new Session(env);
+    env.router = new owl.router.Router(env, ROUTES);
+    await env.router.start();
+    return env;
+}
+```
+
+Notice that the router needs to be started. This is an asynchronous operation
+because it needs to apply the potential navigation guards on the current route
+(which may or may not mean that the application is redirected to another route).
+
+## Reference
+
+### Route definition
+
+A route need to be defined as an object with the following keys:
+
+- `name` (optional): a (unique) string useful to identify the current route. If not
+  given, it will be assigned an automatic name,
+- `path`: a string describing the url. It can be static: `/admin` or dynamic: `/users/{{id}}`.
+  It also can be `*`, to catch all remaining routes.
+- `component` (optional): an Owl component that will be used by the `t-routecomponent`
+  directive if the route is active
+- `redirect` (optional): should be destination object (with optional keys `path`, `to` and `params`) if given, the application will be redirected to the destination whenever we match this route
+- `beforeRouteEnter`: defines a [navigation guard](#navigation-guards).
+
+### `Router`
+
+The `Router` constructor takes three arguments:
+
+- `env`: a valid environment,
+- a list of routes,
+- an optional object (with the only key `mode` which can be `history` (default
+  value) or `hash`).
+
+```js
+const ROUTES = [...];
+const router = new owl.router.Router(env, ROUTES, {mode: 'history'});
+```
+
+Note that the route are defined in a list, and the order matters: the router
+tries to find a match by going down the list.
+
+The router needs to be added to the environment in the `router` sub key.
+
+Once a router is created, it needs to be started. This is necessary to initialize
+its current state to the current URL (and also, to potentially apply any
+navigation guards and/or redirecting).
+
+```js
+await router.start();
+```
+
+Once started, the router will keep track of the current url and reflect its
+value in two keys:
+
+- `router.currentRoute`
+- `router.currentParams`
+
+The router also has a `navigate` method, useful to programmatically change the
+application to another state (and the url):
+
+```js
+router.navigate({ to: "USER", params: { id: 51 } });
+```
+
+### Navigation Guards
+
+Navigation guards are very useful to be able to execute some business logic/
+perform some actions or redirect to other routes whenever the application is
+entering a new route. For example, the following guard checks if there is an
+authenticated user, and if it is not the case, redirect to the sign in route.
+
+```js
+async function protectRoute({ env, to }) {
+  if (!env.session.authUser) {
+    env.session.setNextRoute(to.name);
+    return { to: "SIGN_IN" };
+  }
+  return true;
+}
+```
+
+A navigation guard is a function that returns a promise, which either resolves
+to `true` (the navigation is accepted), or to another destination object.
+
+### `RouteComponent`
+
+The `RouteComponent` component directs Owl to render the component associated
+to the currently active route (if any):
+
+```xml
+<div t-name="App">
+    <NavBar />
+    <RouteComponent />
+</div>
+```
+
+### `Link`
+
+The `Link` component is a Owl component which render as a `<a>` tag with any
+content. It will compute the proper href from its props, and allow Owl to
+properly navigate to a given url if clicked on it.
+
+```xml
+<Link to="'HOME'">Home</Link>
+```

-architectures/designs/systems/... have been created. We propose here to use

+## Overview
+
+Managing the state in an application is not an easy task. In some cases, the
+state of an application can be part of the component tree, in a natural way.
+However, there are situations where some part of the state need to be displayed
+in various parts of the user interface, and then, it is not obvious which
+component should own which part of the state.
+
+Owl's solution to this issue is a centralized store. It is a class that owns
+some state, and let the developer update it in a structured way, with `actions`.
+Owl components can then connect to the store, and will be updated if necessary.
+
+Note: Owl store is inspired by React Redux and VueX.
+
+## Example
+
+Here is what a simple store looks like:
+
+```js
+const actions = {
+  addTodo({ state }, message) {
+    state.todos.push({
+      id: state.nextId++,
+      message,
+      isCompleted: false
+    });
+  }
+};
+
+const state = {
+  todos: [],
+  nextId: 1
+};
+
+const store = new owl.Store({ state, actions });
+store.on("update", () => console.log(store.state));
+
+// updating the state
+store.dispatch("addTodo", "fix all bugs");
+```
+
+This example shows how a store can be defined and used. Note that in most cases,
+actions will be dispatched by connected components.
+
+## Reference
+
+### `Store`
+
+The store is a simple [`owl.EventBus`](event_bus.md) that triggers `update` events
+whenever its state is changed. Note that these events are triggered only after a
+microtask tick, so only one event will be triggered for any number of state changes in a
+call stack.
+
+Also, it is important to mention that the state is observed (with an `owl.Observer`),
+which is the reason why it is able to know if it was changed. See the
+[Observer](observer.md)'s documentation for more details.
+
+The `Store` class is quite small. It has two public methods:
+
+- its constructor
+- `dispatch`
+
+The constructor takes a configuration object with four (optional) keys:
+
+- the initial state
+- the actions
+- the getters
+- the environment
+
+```javascript
+const config = {
+  state,
+  actions,
+  getters,
+  env
+};
+const store = new Store(config);
+```
+
+### Actions
+
+Actions are used to coordinate state changes. It can be used for both synchronous
+and asynchronous logic.
+
+```js
+const actions = {
+  async login({ state }, info) {
+    state.loginState = "pending";
+    try {
+      const loginInfo = await doSomeRPC("/login/", info);
+      state.loginState = loginInfo;
+    } catch (e) {
+      state.loginState = "error";
+    }
+  }
+};
+```
+
+Actions are called with the `dispatch` method on the store, and can receive an
+arbitrary number of arguments.
+
+```js
+store.dispatch("login", someInfo);
+```
+
+Note that anything returned by an action will also be returned by the `dispatch`
+call.
+
+Also, it is important to be aware that we need to be careful with asynchronous
+logic. Each state change will potentially trigger a rerendering, so we need to
+make sure that we do not have a partial corrupted state. Here is an example that
+is likely not a good idea:
+
+```javascript
+const actions = {
+  async fetchSomeData({ state }, recordId) {
+    state.recordId = recordId;
+    const data = await doSomeRPC("/read/", recordId);
+    state.recordData = data;
+  }
+};
+```
+
+In the previous example, there is a period of time in which the state has a
+`recordId` which does not correspond to the `recordData`. It is more likely that
+we want an atomic update: updating the `recordId` at the same time as the `recordData`
+values:
+
+```javascript
+const actions = {
+  async fetchSomeData({ state }, recordId) {
+    const data = await doSomeRPC("/read/", recordId);
+    state.recordId = recordId;
+    state.recordData = data;
+  }
+};
+```
+
+### Getters
+
+Usually, data contained in the store will be stored in a normalized way. For
+example,
+
+```js
+{
+    posts: [{id: 11, authorId: 4, content: 'Greetings'}],
+    authors: [{id: 4, name: 'John'}]
+}
+```
+
+However, the user interface will probably need some denormalized data like
+
+```js
+{id: 11, author: {id: 4, name: 'John'}, content: 'Greetings'}
+```
+
+This is what `getters` are for: they give a centralized way to process and
+transform the data contained in the store.
+
+```js
+const getters = {
+  getPost({ state }, id) {
+    const post = state.posts.find(p => p.id === id);
+    const author = state.authors.find(a => (a.id = post.id));
+    return {
+      id,
+      author,
+      content: post.content
+    };
+  }
+};
+
+// somewhere else
+const post = store.getters.getPost(id);
+```
+
+Getters take _at most_ one argument.
+
+Note that getters are cached if they don't take any argument, or their argument
+is a string or a number.
+
+### Connecting a Component
+
+At some point, we need a way to access the state in the store from a component.
+By default, an Owl `Component` is not connected to any store. To do that, we
+need to create a component inheriting from `OwlComponent`:
+
+```javascript
+const actions = {
+  increment({ state }, val) {
+    state.counter += val;
+  }
+};
+
+const state = {
+  counter: 0
+};
+const store = new owl.Store({ state, actions });
+
+class Counter extends owl.ConnectedComponent {
+  static mapStoreToProps(state) {
+    return {
+      value: state.counter
+    };
+  }
+  increment() {
+    this.env.store.dispatch("increment");
+  }
+}
+
+const counter = new Counter({ store, qweb });
+```
+
+```xml
+<button t-name="Counter" t-on-click="increment">
+  Click Me! [<t t-esc="props.value"/>]
+</button>
+```
+
+The `ConnectedComponent` class can be configured with the following fields:
+
+- `mapStoreToProps`: a function that extracts the `props` of the Component
+  from the `state` of the `Store` and returns them as a dict.
+- `getStore`: a function that takes the `env` in arguments and returns an
+  instance of `Store` to connect to (if not given, connects to `env.store`)
+- `hashFunction`: the function to use to detect changes in the state (if not
+  given, generates a function that uses revision numbers, incremented at
+  each state change)
+- `deep` (boolean): [only useful if no hashFunction is given] if `false`, only watch
+  for top level state changes (`true` by default)
+
+Note that the class `ConnectedComponent` has a `dispatch` method. This means
+that the previous example could be simplified like this:
+
+```javascript
+class Counter extends owl.ConnectedComponent {
+  static mapStoreToProps(state) {
+    return {
+      value: state.counter
+    };
+  }
+}
+```
+
+```xml
+<button t-name="Counter" t-on-click="dispatch('increment')">
+  Click Me! [<t t-esc="props.value"/>]
+</button>
+```
+
+### Semantics
+
+The `Store` and the `ConnectedComponent` try to be smart and to optimize as much
+as possible the rendering and update process. What is important to know is:
+
+- components are always updated in the order of their creation (so, parent
+  before children)
+- they are updated only if they are in the DOM
+- if a parent is asynchronous, the system will wait for it to complete its
+  update before updating other components.
+- in general, updates are not coordinated. This is not a problem for synchronous
+  components, but if there are many asynchronous components, this could lead to
+  a situation where some part of the UI is updated and other parts of the UI is
+  not updated.
+
+### Good Practices
+
+- avoid asynchronous components as much as possible. Asynchronous components
+  lead to situations where parts of the UI is not updated immediately.
+- do not be afraid to connect many components, parent or children if needed. For
+  example, a `MessageList` component could get a list of ids in its `mapStoreToProps` and a `Message` component could get the data of its own
+  message
+- since the `mapStoreToProps` function is called for each connected component,
+  for each state update, it is important to make sure that these functions are
+  as fast as possible.

+# 🦉 Tags 🦉
+
+Tags are very small helper to make it easy to write inline templates. There is
+only one currently available tag: `xml`, but we plan to add other tags later,
+such as a `css` tag, which will be used to write single file components.
+
+## XML tag
+
+Without tags, creating a standalone component would look like this:
+
+```js
+import { Component } from 'owl'
+
+const name = 'some-unique-name';
+const template = `
+    <div>
+        <span t-if="somecondition">text</span>
+        <button t-on-click="someMethod">Click</button>
+    </div>
+`;
+QWeb.registerTemplate(name, template);
+
+class MyComponent extends Component {
+    static template = name;
+
+    ...
+}
+```
+
+With tags, this process is slightly simplified. The name is uniquely generated,
+and the template is automatically registered:
+
+```js
+import { Component } from 'owl'
+import { xml } from 'owl/tags'
+
+class MyComponent extends Component {
+    static template = xml`
+        <div>

+- [Playground](#playground)
+- [Benchmarks](#benchmarks)
+- [Single File Component](#single-file-component)
+
+## Overview
+
+To help work with/improve/learn OWL, there are a few extras tools/settings.
+
+- development mode: enable better error reporting for the developer
+- a playground application: a space to experiment and learn Owl.
+- a benchmarks application: allow comparison with a few common frameworks
+
+The two applications are available in the `tools/` folder, and can be accessed
+by using a static http server. A simple python
+server is available in `server.py`. There is also a npm script to start it:
+`npm run tools` (and its version with a watcher: `npm run tools:watch`).
+
+## Development Mode
+
+By default, Owl is in _production_ mode, this means that it will try to do its
+job fast, and skip some expensive operations. However, in some cases, it is
+convenient to have better information on what is going on, this is the purpose
+of the dev mode.
+
+Owl has a mode flag, in `owl.__info__.mode`. Its default value is `prod`, but
+it can be set to `dev`:
+
+```js
+owl.__info__.mode = "dev";
+```
+
+Note that templates compiled with the `prod` settings will not be recompiled.
+So, changing this setting is best done at startup.
+
+An important job done by the `dev` mode is to validate props for each component
+creation and update. Also, extra props will cause an error.
+
+## Playground
+
+The playground is an important application designed to help learning and
+experimenting with Owl. The last published version of Owl can be tested [online](https://odoo.github.io/owl/playground/).
+
+It is an application similar to `jsFiddle`, but specialized for Owl: there are
+three tabs (`js`, `css` and `xml`), and a simple button `Run` to execute that
+code in an iframe.
+
+## Benchmarks
+
+Note: This is more an internal tool, useful for people working on Owl.
+
+The benchmarks application is a very small application, implemented in different
+frameworks, and in different versions of Owl. This is a simple internal tool,
+useful to compare various performance metrics on some tasks.
+
+## Single File Component
+
+If you want to have `xml` syntax highlighting while using the `xml` helper which
+helps you define inline templates, there is a VS Code addon `Comment tagged template`
+which, if installed, does exactly that. To enable it, you need to add a comment,
+like this:
+
+```js
+// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+// TEMPLATE
+// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+const TEMPLATE = xml/* xml */ `
+	<div class="main two-columns">
+		<Sidebar/>
+		<Content />
+	</div>`;
+
+// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+// CODE
+// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+class MyComponent extends Component {
+  static template = TEMPLATE;
+  static components = { Sidebar, Content };
+
+  // rest of component...
+}
+```

+# 🦉 Utils 🦉
+
+Owl export a few useful utility functions, to help with common issues. Those
+functions are all available in the `owl.utils` namespace.
+
+## Content
+
+- [`whenReady`](#whenready): executing code when DOM is ready
+- [`loadJS`](#loadjs): loading script files
+- [`loadTemplates`](#loadtemplates): loading xml files
+- [`escape`](#escape): sanitizing strings
+- [`debounce`](#debounce): limiting rate of function calls
+
+## `whenReady`
+
+The function `whenReady` returns a `Promise` resolved when the DOM is ready (if
+not ready yet, resolved directly otherwise). If called with a callback as
+argument, it executes it as soon as the DOM ready (or directly).
+
+```js
+Promise.all([loadTemplates(), owl.utils.whenReady()]).then(function([templates]) {
+  const qweb = new owl.QWeb(templates);
+  const app = new App({ qweb });
+  app.mount(document.body);
+});
+```
+
+```js
+owl.utils.whenReady(function() {
+  const qweb = new owl.QWeb();
+  const app = new App({ qweb });
+  app.mount(document.body);
+});
+```
+
+## `loadJS`
+
+`loadJS` takes a url (string) for a javascript resource, and loads it. It returns
+a promise, so the caller can properly react when it is ready. Also, it is smart:
+it maintains a list of urls previously loaded (or currently being loaded), and
+prevent doing twice the work.
+
+```js
+class MyComponent extends owl.Component {
+  willStart() {
+    return owl.utils.loadJS("/static/libs/someLib.js");
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## `loadTemplates`

+```js

 # 🦉 VDom 🦉
 
-Owl's virtual dom is a fork of [snabbdom](https://github.com/snabbdom/snabbdom).
+Owl is a declarative component system: we declare the structure of the component
+tree, and Owl will translate that to a list of imperative operations. This
+translation is done by a virtual dom. This is the low level layer of Owl, most
+developer will not need to call directly the virtual dom functions.
+
+The main idea behind a virtual dom is to keep a in-memory representation of the
+DOM (called a virtual node), and whenever some change is needed, to regenerate
+a new representation, compute the difference between the old and the new, then
+apply the changes.
+
+`vdom` exports two functions:
+
+- `h`: create a new virtual node
+- `patch`: compare two virtual nodes, and apply the difference.
+
+Note: Owl's virtual dom is a fork of [snabbdom](https://github.com/snabbdom/snabbdom).

+ * The t-component directive is certainly a complicated and hard to maintain piece

+ *

+ * // each components
+ * let utils = this.utils;
+ *
+ * // this is the virtual node representing the parent div
+ * let c1 = [], p1 = { key: 1 };

+ * // creation, or the props update...

+ *
+ * // this is kind of tricky: we need here to find if the component was already
+ * // created by a previous rendering.  This is done by checking the internal
+ * // `cmap` (children map) of the parent component: it maps keys to component ids,
+ * // and, then, if there is an id, we look into the children list to get the
+ * // instance

+/**
+ * Owl QWeb Expression Parser
+ *
+ * Owl needs in various contexts to be able to understand the structure of a
+ * string representing a javascript expression.  The usual goal is to be able
+ * to rewrite some variables.  For example, if a template has
+ *
+ *  ```xml
+ *  <t t-if="computeSomething({val: state.val})">...</t>
+ * ```
+ *
+ * this needs to be translated in something like this:
+ *
+ * ```js
+ *   if (context["computeSomething"]({val: context["state"].val})) { ... }
+ * ```
+ *
+ * This file contains the implementation of an extremely naive tokenizer/parser
+ * and evaluator for javascript expressions.  The supported grammar is basically
+ * only expressive enough to understand the shape of objects, of arrays, and
+ * various operators.

+ * Owl VDOM
+ *
+ * This file contains an implementation of a virtual DOM, which is a system that
+ * can generate in-memory representations of a DOM tree, compare them, and
+ * eventually change a concrete DOM tree to match its representation, in an
+ * hopefully efficient way.
+ *
+ * Note that this code is a fork of Snabbdom, slightly tweaked/optimized for our
+ * needs (see https://github.com/snabbdom/snabbdom).
+ *
+ * The main exported values are:
+ * - interface VNode
+ * - h function (a helper function to generate a vnode)
+ * - patch function (to apply a vnode to an actual DOM node)
