-## Overview
+## Introduction
 
 Reactivity is a big topic in javascript frameworks. The goal is to provide a
-simple way to manipulate state, in such a way that the interface automatically
-update accordingly to state changes. Also, we obviously want this to happen in
-a performant way.
+simple way to manipulate state, in such a way that the interface updates automatically
+according to state changes, and to do so in a performant manner.
 
-To solve this issue, Owl provides two reactivity primitives:
-
-- `reactive`, which returns a proxy to its first argument, and tracks all read/update
-  operation going through it,
-- `useState`: a hook, that internally uses `reactive`, and is linked to its
-  owner component: any read operation will be tracked (key by key), and any
-  updates to these tracked values will cause the component to be rerendered.
-
-Most of the time, the `useState` hook is the best solution.
-
-Since version 2.0, Owl applies the fine grained reactivity at the component
-level: reactive objects received as props are automatically subscribed to by the
-component, so Owl can track which part of these props are consumed by each
-component, and is therefore able to only rerender the impacted components.
+To this end, Owl provides a proxy-based reactivity system, based on the `reactive` primitive.
+The `reactive` function takes an object as a first argument, and an optional callback as its second
+argument, it returns a proxy of the object. This proxy tracks what properties are read
+through the proxy, and calls the provided callback whenever one of these properties is changed
+through any reactive version of the same object. It does so in depth, by returning reactive versions
+of the subobjects when they are read.
 
 ## `useState`
 
-Let us start by an example of how `useState` could be used:
+While the `reactive` primitive is very powerful, its usage in components follow a very standard pattern:
+components want to be rerendered when part of the state which they depend on for rendering changes. To
+this end, owl provides a standard hook: `useState`. To put it simply, this hook simply calls reactive
+with the provided object, and the current component's render function as its callback. This will cause
+it to rerender whenever any part of the state object that has been read by this component is modified.
+
+Here is a simple example of how `useState` can be used:
 
 ```js
 class Counter extends Component {
   static template = xml`
-    <div t-on-click="increment">
+    <div t-on-click="() => this.state.value++">
       <t t-esc="state.value"/>
     </div>`;
 
   setup() {
     this.state = useState({ value: 0 });
   }
+}
+```
 
-  increment() {
-    this.state.value++;
+This component reads `state.value` when it renders, subscribing it to changes to that key. Whenever
+the value changes, Owl will update the component. Note that there is nothing special about the
+`state` property, you can name your state variables whatever you want, and you can have multiple of
+them on the same component if it makes sense to do so. This also allows `useState` to be used in custom
+hooks that may require state that is specific to that hook.
+
+### Reactive props
+
+Since version 2.0, Owl renders are no longer "deep" by default: a component is only rerendered by its
+parent if its props have changed (using a simple equality test). What if the contents of a props have
+changed in a deeper property? If that prop is reactive, owl will rerender the child components that
+need to be updated automatically, and only those components, it does so by reobserving reactive
+objects passed as props to components. Consider the following example:
+
+```js
+class Counter extends Component {
+  static template = xml`
+    <div t-on-click="() => props.state.value++">
+      <t t-esc="props.state.value"/>
+    </div>`;
+}
+
+class Parent extends Component {
+  static template = xml`
+    <Counter state="this.state"/>
+    <button t-on-click="() => this.state.value = 0">Reset counter</button>
+    <button t-on-click="() => this.state.test++" t-esc="this.state.test"/>`;
+
+  setup() {
+    this.state = useState({ value: 0, test: 1 });
   }
 }
 ```
 
-If one were to use a simple state object, Owl would not be aware that the value
-was changed and that the component should be rerendered. With the `useState`
-hook, `this.state` is now a reactive object, so this component works as expected.
+When clicking on the counter button, only the Counter rerenders, because the Parent has never read
+the "value" key in the state. When clicking on the "Reset Counter" button, the same thing happens:
+only the Counter component rerenders. What matters is not _where_ the state is updated, but which
+parts of the state are updated, and which components depend on them. This is achieved by Owl by
+automatically calling `useState` on reactive objects passed as props to a child component.
+
+When clicking on the last button, the parent is rerendered, but the child does not care about the
+`test` key: it has not read it. The props that we give it (`this.state`) have also not changed,
+as such, the parent updates but the child doesn't.
+
+For most day-to-day operations, `useState` should cover all of your needs. If
+you are curious about more advanced use cases and technical details, read on.
+
+### Debugging subscriptions
+
+Owl provides a way to show which reactive objects and keys a component is subscribed to: you can
+look at `component.__owl__.subscriptions`. Note that this is on the internal `__owl__` field, and
+should not be used in any type of production code as the name of this property or any of its properties
+or methods are subject to change at any point, even in stable versions of Owl, and may become available
+only in debug mode in the future.
 
 ## `reactive`
 
 The `reactive` function is the basic reactivity primitive. It takes an object
 or an array as first argument, and optionally, a function as the second argument.
-The function will be called whenever any tracked value is updated.
+The function is called whenever any tracked value is updated.
 
 ```js
 const obj = reactive({ a: 1 }, () => console.log("changed"));
 
-obj.a = 2; // does not log anything: the 'a' key was not read
-console.log(obj.a); // log 2, and reads the 'a' key => it is now tracked
-obj.a = 3; // log 'changed' because we updated a tracked value
+obj.a = 2; // does not log anything: the 'a' key has not been read yet
+console.log(obj.a); // logs 2 and reads the 'a' key => it is now tracked
+obj.a = 3; // logs 'changed' because we updated a tracked value
 ```
 
 An important property of reactive objects is that they can be reobserved: this
-will create an independant proxy that tracks another set of keys:
+will create an independent proxy that tracks another set of keys:
 
 ```js
 const obj1 = reactive({ a: 1, b: 2 }, () => console.log("observer 1"));
 const obj2 = reactive(obj1, () => console.log("observer 2"));
 
-console.log(obj1.a); // log 1, and reads the 'a' key => it is now tracked by observer 1
-console.log(obj1.b); // log 2, and 'b' is now tracked by observer 1
-console.log(obj2.b); // log 2, and 'b' is now tracked by observer 1
-obj2.a = 3; // log 'observer1', because observer2 does not track a
-obj2.b = 3; // log 'observer1' and 'observer2'
+console.log(obj1.a); // logs 1, and reads the 'a' key => it is now tracked by observer 1
+console.log(obj2.b); // logs 2, and 'b' is now tracked by observer 2
+obj2.a = 3; // only logs 'observer1', because observer2 does not track a
+obj2.b = 3; // only logs 'observer2', because observer1 does not track b
+console.log(obj2.a, obj1.b); // logs 3 and 3, while the object is observed independently, it is still a single object
 ```
 
-Obviously, one can use `reactive` on the result of a `useState` if wanted, this
-is the proper way to watch for some state changes.
+Because `useState` returns a normal reactive object, it is possible to call `reactive` on the result
+of a `useState` to observe changes to that object while outside the context of a component, or to
+call `useState` on reactive objects created outside of components. In those cases, one needs to be
+careful with regards to the lifetime of those reactive objects, as holding references to these
+objects may prevent garbage collection of the component and its data even if Owl has destroyed it.
 
-## `markRaw`
+### Subscriptions are ephemereal
 
-Marks an object so that it is ignored by the reactivity system. This function returns its argument.
+Subscription to state changes are ephemereal, whenever an observer is notified that a state object
+has changed, all of its subscriptions are cleared, meaning that if it still cares about it, it
+should read the properties it cares about again. For example:
 
 ```js
-const someObject = markRaw(...);
+const obj = reactive({ a: 1 }, () => console.log("observer called"));
+
+console.log(obj.a); // logs 1, and reads the 'a' key => it is now tracked by the observer
+obj.a = 3; // logs 'observer1' and clears the subscriptions of the observer
+obj.a = 4; // doesn't log anything, the key is no longer observed
+```
+
+This may seem counter-intuitive, but it makes perfect sense in the context of components:
+
+```js
+class DoubleCounter extends Component {
+  static template = xml`
+    <t t-esc="state.selected + ': ' + state[state.selected].value"/>
+    <button t-on-click="() => this.state.count1++">increment count 1</button>
+    <button t-on-click="() => this.state.count2++">increment count 2</button>
+    <button t-on-click="changeCounter">Switch counter</button>
+  `;
+
+  setup() {
+    this.state = useState({ selected: "count1", count1: 0, count2: 0 });
+  }
+
+  changeCounter() {
+    this.state.selected = this.state.selected === "count1" ? "count2" : "count1";
+  }
+}
+```
+
+In this component, if we increment the value of the second counter, the component will not rerender,
+which makes sense as rerendering will have no effect, as the second counter is not displayed. If we
+toggle the component to display the second counter, we now no longer want the component to rerender
+when the value of the first counter changes, and this is what happens: a component only rerenders
+when there are changes to pieces of state that have been read during or after the previous render.
+If a piece of state has not been read in the last render, we know that its value won't influence the
+rendered output, and so we can ignore it.
+
+### reactive `Map` and `Set`
+
+The reactivity system has special support built-in for the standard container types `Map` and `Set`.
+They behave like one would expect: reading a key subscribes the observer to that key, adding or
+removing an item to them notifies observers that have used any of the iterators on that reactive
+object, such as `.entries()` or `.keys()`, likewise with clearing them.
+
+## Escape hatches
+
+Sometimes, it is desirable to bypass the reactivity system. Creating proxies when interacting with
+reactive objects is expensive, and while on the whole, the performance benefit that we get by
+rerendering only the parts of the interface that need it outweighs that cost, in some cases, we want
+to be able to opt out of creating them in the first place. This is the purpose of `markRaw`:
+
+### `markRaw`
+
+Marks an object so that it is ignored by the reactivity system, meaning that if this object is ever
+part of a of a reactive object, it will be returned as is, and no keys in that object will be
+observed.
+
+```js
+const someObject = markRaw({ b: 1 });
 const state = useState({
   a: 1,
-  obj: someObject
+  obj: someObject,
 });
-// here, state.obj === someObject
+console.log(state.obj.b); // attempt to subscribe to the "b" key in someObject
+state.obj.b = 2; // No rerender will occur here
+console.log(someObject === state.obj); // true
 ```
 
-This is useful in some rare cases. For example, some complex and large object such
-that going through the reactivity system may cause a non trivial performance slowdown.
+This is useful in some rare cases. One such example would be if you want to use an array of objects
+that is potentially large to render a list, but those objects are known to be immutable:
+
+```js
+this.items = useState([
+  { label: "some text", value: 42 },
+  // ... 1000 total objects
+]);
+```
+
+in the template:
+
+```xml
+<t t-foreach="items" t-as="item" t-key="item.label" t-esc="item.label + item.value"/>
+```
+
+Here, on every render, we go and read one thousand keys from a reactive object, which causes
+one thousand reactive objects to be created. If we know that the content of these objects
+cannot change, this is wasted work. If instead all of these objects are marked as raw, we avoid
+all of this work while keeping the ability to lean on the reactivity to track the presence and
+identity of these objects:
+
+```js
+this.items = useState([
+  markRaw({ label: "some text", value: 42 }),
+  // ... 1000 total objects
+]);
+```
 
 However, use this function with caution: this is an escape hatch from the reactivity
-system, and as such, using it may cause subtle and unintended issues!
-
-## `toRaw`
-
-Given a reactive object, this function returns the underlying, non-reactive,
-corresponding object.
+system, and as such, using it may cause subtle and unintended issues! For example:
 
 ```js
-// in setup
-const state = useState({ value: 1 });
+// This will cause a rerender
+this.items.push(markRaw({ label: "another label", value: 1337 }));
 
-// later:
-const rawState = toRaw(this.state);
-rawState.value = 3; // will NOT be picked up by the reactivity system!!!
+// THIS WILL NOT CAUSE A RENDER!
+this.items[17].value = 3;
+// The UI is now desynced from component's state until the next render caused by something else
 ```
 
-Here again, this is useful in some situations where we want to explicitely bypass
-Owl, but using this function means that the responsability of coordinating
-state update is given to the user code, instead of Owl. Subtle bugs may arise!
+In short: only use `markRaw` if your application is slowing down noticeably and profiling reveals
+that a lot of time is spent creating useless reactive objects.
 
-Also, normal (non-reactive objects) will be directly returned by `toRaw`:
+### `toRaw`
+
+While `markRaw` marks an object so that it is never made reactive, `toRaw` takes an object and
+returns the underlying non-reactive object. It can be useful in some niche cases. In particular,
+because the reactivity system returns a proxy, the returned object does not compare equal to the
+original object:
 
 ```js
-const obj = { a: 1 };
-console.log(toRaw(obj) === obj); // true
+const obj = {};
+const reactiveObj = reactive(obj);
+console.log(obj === reactiveObj); // false
+console.log(obj === toRaw(reactiveObj)); // true
 ```
+
+It can also be useful during debugging, as unfolding proxies recursively in debuggers can be confusing.
+
+## Advanced usage
+
+The following is a collection of small snippets that leverage the reactivity system in
+"non-standard" ways to help you understand its power and where using it might make your code simpler.
+
+### Notification manager
+
+Showing notifications is a pretty common need in web applications, you may want to show a
+notification from any other component within the application, and the notifications should stack on
+top of one another regardless of which component spawned them, here is how we can leverage the
+reactivity to accomplish this:
+
+```js
+let notificationId = 1;
+const notifications = reactive({});
+class NotificationContainer extends Component {
+  static template = xml`
+    <t t-foreach="notifications" t-as="notification" t-key="notification_key" t-esc="notification"/>
+  `;
+  setup() {
+    this.notifications = useState(notifications);
+  }
+}
+
+export function addNotification(label) {
+  const id = notificationId++;
+  notifications[id] = label;
+  return () => {
+    delete notifications[id];
+  };
+}
+```
+
+Here, the `notifications` variable is a reactive object. Notice how we didn't give `reactive` a
+callback: this is because in this case, all we care about is that adding or removing notifications
+in the `addNotification` function goes through the reactivity system. The `NotificationContainer`
+component reobserves this object with `useState`, and is updated whenever notifications are
+added or removed.
+
+### Store
+
+Centralizing application state is a pretty common want/need in web applications. Because of the way
+the reactivity system works, you can treat any reactive object as a store, and if you call `useState`
+on it, components automatically observe only the part of the store that they're interested in:
+
+```js
+export const store = reactive({
+  list: [],
+  add(item) {
+    this.list.push(item);
+  },
+});
+
+export function useStore() {
+  return useState(store);
+}
+```
+
+In any component:
+
+```js
+import { useStore } from "./store";
+
+class List extends Component {
+  static template = xml`
+    <t t-foreach="store.list" t-as="item" t-key="item" t-esc="item"/>
+  `;
+  setup() {
+    this.store = useStore();
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Anywhere in the application:
+
+```js
+import { store } from "./store";
+// Will cause any instance of the List component in the app to update
+store.add("New list item!");
+```
+
+Notice how we can make objects with methods into reactive objects, and when these methods are used
+to mutate the store contents, it works as expected. And while stores are generally one-off objects,
+it is entirely possible to make class instances reactive:
+
+```js
+class Store {
+  list = [];
+  add(item) {
+    this.list.push(item);
+  }
+}
+// Essentially equivalent to the previous code
+export const store = reactive(new Store());
+```
+
+Which can be useful to unit test the class separately.
+
+### Local storage synchronization
+
+Sometimes, you want to persist some state accross reloads, you can do this by storing it in the
+`localStorage`, but what if you want to update the `localStorage` item every time the state changes,
+so that you don't have to manually synchronize the states? Well, you can use the reactivity system
+to write a custom hook that will do that for you:
+
+```js
+function useStoredState(key, initialState) {
+  const state = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem(key)) || initialState;
+  const store = (obj) => localStorage.setItem(key, JSON.stringify(obj));
+  const reactiveState = reactive(state, () => store(reactiveState));
+  store(reactiveState);
+  return useState(state);
+}
+
+class MyComponent extends Component {
+  setup() {
+    this.state = useStoredState("MyComponent.state", { value: 1 });
+  }
+}
+```
+
+One important thing to notice is that both times we call `store`, we call it with `reactiveState`,
+not `state`: we need `store` to read the keys through a reactive object for it to correctly
+subscribe to state changes. Notice also that we call `store` the first time by hand, as otherwise it
+will not be subscribed to anything, and no amount of change in the object will cause the reactive
+callback to be invoked.

+# Owl Devtools Browser extension
+
+The owl devtools browser extension is an extension available on chrome or firefox which adds an owl tab
+to the browser devtools in order to inspect all owl apps that are present on any web page, their components
+and allows to interract with their data to a certain extend. There is also a profiler available to visualize
+the components' lifecycle and be able to trace their origin.
+
+## Install the extension
+
+In the owl root folder:
+
+```bash
+npm install
+```
+
+For chrome:
+
+```bash
+npm run build:devtools-chrome
+```
+
+For firefox:
+
+```bash
+npm run build:devtools-firefox
+```
+
+You can also run:
+
+```bash
+npm run dev:devtools-chrome
+```
+
+or
+
+```bash
+npm run dev:devtools-firefox
+```
+
+to avoid recompiling owl and gain time if it has already been done.
+
+To run the extension:
+
+In google chrome: go to your chrome extensions admin panel, activate developer mode and click on `Load unpacked`.
+Select the output folder (dist/devtools) and that's it, your extension is active!
+There is a convenient refresh button on the extension card (still on the same admin page) to update your code.
+Do note that if you got some problems, you may need to completly remove and reload the extension to completly refresh the extension.
+
+In firefox: go to the address about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox and click on `Load temporary Add-on...`.
+Select any file of the output folder (dist/devtools) and that's it, your extension is active!
+Here, you can use the reload button to refresh the extension.
+
+Note that you may have to open another window or reload your tab to see the extension working.
+Also note that the extension will only be active on pages that have a sufficient version of owl.

 # 🦉 OWL Roadmap 🦉
 
-- Current version: 1.4.10
+- Current version: 2.X
 - Status: stable
 
-This roadmap is only an attempt at predicting Owl's future.  Everything may
-change!
-
-
-### 1.x
-
-- add chrome and firefox devtools,
-- fix every bugs,
-- improve documentation,
-- small backward compatible improvements.
-
-### 2.x (2020? 2021? 2022?)
-
-- stop support for `t-set` directive to define the content of a slot
-
-Maybe:
-
-- reimplement vdom to use *block* system, like Vue 3, which should make Owl
-  much faster
-- refactor `QWeb` to use an intermediate representation (some kind of AST) to
-  allow additional optimisations.
-
+Owl is currently stable. No (large) improvements is expected in the near future.
 
+Note that we intend to keep maintaining owl, and as such, improvements and/or
+breaking changes may require a version bump in the future.
