v2.4.0

A big release this week.

Features:

• x-spread directive (Allows you to bind an element to an object of Alpine directives and they will be “applied” (similar to x-bind=”{}” in Vue)), see the x-spread docs
• if one Alpine component on a page breaks, the others still work
• access to $el from an x-data expression
• support for animations in x-transition directives
• x-model.number is now supported for checkbox arrays

Fixes:

• $nextTick now waits until a transition is completely started (an extra tick) until being called
• attributes are only set when needed in Alpine, (this was causing issues like pausing audio elements)
• when transitions are toggled quickly, overlapping transitions are supported (the previous transition is finished first before the next one is applied)
• allow nested components to be moved around the DOM and not be re-initialized
• Checkboxes were being checked by default if a value binding was present
• Expressions that use a “result” variable were running into a conflict with Alpine’s built-in result variable
