defmodule A2UI.TemplateChildList do
  @moduledoc """
  A dynamic child list that generates children from a data model array.

  Instead of static `["id1", "id2"]` child lists, a TemplateChildList
  tells the client to iterate over a data array and instantiate a
  template component for each item.

  ## Wire format

  ## Examples

      # Each item in /messages gets rendered using the "msg-tpl" component
