@esmx/router-vue/src/router-view.ts

Vue integration for @esmx/router - A universal router that works seamlessly with both Vue 2.7+ and Vue 3

import { defineComponent, h } from 'vue';
import { _useRouterViewDepth, useRoute } from './use';
import { resolveComponent } from './util';

/**
 * RouterView component for rendering matched route components.
 * Acts as a placeholder where route components are rendered based on the current route.
 * Supports nested routing with proper depth tracking using Vue's provide/inject mechanism.
 *
 * @param props - Component properties (RouterView accepts no props)
 * @param context - Vue setup context (not used)
 * @param context.slots - Component slots (not used)
 * @returns Vue render function that renders the matched route component at current depth
 *
 * @example
 *
 * ```vue
 * <template>
 *   <div id="app">
 *     <!-- Navigation links -->
 *     <nav>
 *       <RouterLink to="/">Home</RouterLink>
 *       <RouterLink to="/about">About</RouterLink>
 *       <RouterLink to="/users">Users</RouterLink>
 *     </nav>
 *
 *     <!-- Root level route components render here -->
 *     <RouterView />
 *   </div>
 * </template>
 * ```
