Is it possible to create a view of an object? Something along the lines of:
viewof foo.bar = html`<input type=text placeholder="foo">`
The above returns RuntimeError: viewof foo is not defined
Yes, a view’s value can be an object. However, you must define the view in a single cell rather than defining each property in a separate cell. Here’s an example that uses a generic form element:
Alternatively, if you want to define your inputs in separate cells, you could flatten your object into multiple views:
viewof fooBar = …
And you could then also reconstitute these views into a single object if desired:
foo = ({bar: fooBar})
