64
<instruction>
65
Apply SOLID principles during analysis/design. For the core implementation (`##6`), adhere strictly to YAGNI and KISS.

The goal is **Pragmatic Simplicity**: Implement the solution with the **minimum necessary complexity** required to **robustly, correctly, and maintainably** satisfy the **explicitly stated requirements**.
67
</instruction>
68
<clarification>
69
"Simple" does **not** mean superficial, brittle, or poor quality. A complex requirement may necessitate a correspondingly complex solution. Focus on avoiding **unnecessary complexity** (e.g., gold -plating, speculative features for unstated needs).
70
</clarification>
71
<justification>
72
Justify significant design choices impacting SOLID/KISS. Crucially, if the minimum **necessary** solution to meet requirements robustly *is* inherently complex, **explicitly justify this necessary complexity** against the requirements in relevant workflow steps (esp. `## 2`, `## 6`).
73
</justification>

75
If valuable alternatives or improvements (e.g., better satisfying SOLID long-term, performance opts) are considered but discarded *specifically because they add complexity beyond the necessary minimum for current requirements*, capture these ideas internally for `## 9.

114
- **Purpose:** Unofficial Vue 3 Class Component API using ES classes & TS decorators. Translates class syntax into standard Vue 3 Options API components. Assumes build process handles final transformations for Vue compatibility.
115
- **Core:** Classes `extend Vue` (or `Base`), use `@Component`. The class itself is typically the default export (`export default class MyComponent extends Vue { ... }`).
116
- **Mapping to Vue Options API:**
117
- **`@Component({...opts})`**: Configures the root Options API object. Options like `name`, `emits`, `components`, `directives`, `inheritAttrs`, `expose`, `template`, `provide` (as object/fn), `mixins` (native components) directly populate corresponding Options API fields.
118
- **Class Fields (`prop = val`)**: Become reactive properties in `data()`.
119
- **Class Methods (`method()`)**: Become functions in `methods`. Additional methods can be merged via `@Component({ methods: {...} })`.
120
- **ES Getters/Setters (`get P()`, `set P(v)`)**: Become `computed` properties (with caching). Use `@Vanilla` to prevent this and keep them as standard ES accessors.
121
- **Lifecycle Methods (`mounted()`, etc.)**: Map directly to Options API lifecycle hooks by name. Use `@Hook` for custom/router hooks.
122
- **Render Function:** Defined either by a class method named `render()` or via the `@Component({ render: fn })` option. Maps to Options API `render`.
123
- **`@Prop({...opts})`**: Defines entries in `props`.
124
- **`@Watch('prop', opts)`**: Defines entries in `watch`.
125
- **`@Emit('event')`**: Creates a method in `methods` that automatically calls `this.$emit()`.
126
- **`@Model({...opts})`**: Combines `props` definition with a `computed` property implementing `v-model` logic (`get` reads prop, `set` emits `update:` event).
127
- **`@Ref('ref')`**: Creates a getter for `this.$refs[refName]`.
128
- **`@Provide('key')`**: Defines entries in `provide`. Used for class properties. Note: `provide` can also be set directly via `@Component` options.
129
- **`@Inject({...opts})`**: Defines entries in `inject`.
130
- **Composition API Integration vs. Options API `setup`:**
131
- **`@Component({ setup() {...} })`**: Maps *directly* to the standard Vue **Options API `setup` function** (runs before instance creation).
132
- **`@Setup(fn)`**: Decorator to integrate Composition API composables. Executes `fn` and merges results onto `this` (component instance). Useful for adding reactive state (`ref` , `reactive`) or functions from composables directly to the class instance context.
133
- **Inheritance:**
134
- `extends DecoratedClass`: Maps to Vue `extends`.
135
- `extends mixins(A, B)`: Maps to Vue `extends` on a merged base.
136
- `extends PlainESClass`: Merges base class properties/methods into `data`/`methods`.
137
- **TSX Type Safety:** The `TSX<Props, Events>()(Base)` helper enables compile-time type checking for component attributes in TSX, aligning with defined `Props` and `Events` interfaces.
138
- **Advanced v-f-d Options:** `@Component` accepts `options: {...}` (merge raw options early) and `modifier: fn(opts)` (modify final options object) for fine-grained control.
139
- **Usage:** Inside `.vue` `<script lang="ts">` (NOT `<script setup>`) or in `.ts` files (often w/ `.tsx` render), exporting the class directly.
140
- **Constraint:** Avoid `this.xxx` in field initializers during class definition.
