async-preact-signals

You can create a custom asyncSignal type that wraps Promises and fetch requests, exposing loading, error, and data states as standard signals. This keeps reactive UI updates predictable while the asynchronous operation resolves in the background.

Preact Signals manages Promise states by using a dedicated async signal pattern that tracks the lifecycle of the request. It automatically updates the signal's value to reflect loading, error, or resolved data states for reactive rendering.

Yes, you can integrate fetch requests directly within the signal system. The async signal tracks the request lifecycle, allowing your UI to reactively display loading indicators and error messages without disrupting the synchronous signal architecture.

No, this approach uses Preact Signals directly to manage asynchronous data. You create custom signal types to handle the Promise lifecycle internally, eliminating the need for additional external state management dependencies.

Using a signal-based architecture with a custom async signal provides predictable state management for external data sources. It encapsulates fetching logic and lifecycle states directly within Preact's reactive system for seamless UI updates.
