## 📦 Installation

```bash
yarn add @o.z/playground
# or
npm install @o.z/playground
```

## 🚀 Usage

### Basic Setup

Import the component and use it in your HTML/JavaScript:

```javascript
import "@o.z/playground"
```

### HTML Structure

```html
<zui-playground>
  <!-- Your template with $variables -->
  <template>
    <div class="card">
      <h2>$title</h2>
      <p>$description</p>
      <span class="status $status">$statusText</span>
    </div>
  </template>

  <!-- Variable definitions with metadata -->
  <div name="$title" data-meta='{"type":"string","value":"Hello World","label":"Title"}'></div>
  
  <div name="$description" data-meta='{"type":"string","value":"This is a description","label":"Description"}'></div>
  
  <div name="$status" data-meta='{"type":"choose","value":"success","options":[{"name":"Success","value":"success"},{"name":"Warning","value":"warning"},{"name":"Error","value":"error"}],"label":"Status"}'></div>
  
  <div name="$statusText" data-meta='{"type":"string","value":"All good!","label":"Status Text"}'></div>
</zui-playground>
```

## 📖 Configuration

### Template Variables

Use `$variableName` syntax anywhere inside the `<template>` tag. These placeholders will be replaced with values from the generated form controls.

### Variable Metadata

Each variable is defined by a `<div>` with:
- `name` attribute matching the `$variableName`
- `data-meta` attribute containing JSON configuration

### Supported Input Types

#### String
```json
{
  "type": "string",
  "value": "default text",
  "label": "Field Label",
  "placeholder": "Enter text...",
  "disabled": false
}
```

#### Number
```json
{
  "type": "number",
  "value": 42,
  "label": "Number Field",
  "min": 0,
  "max": 100,
  "disabled": false
}
```

#### Choose (Dropdown)
```json
{
  "type": "choose",
  "value": "option1",
  "label": "Select Option",
  "options": [
    { "name": "Option 1", "value": "option1" },
    { "name": "Option 2", "value": "option2" }
  ],
  "disabled": false
}
```

#### Boolean
```json
{
  "type": "boolean",
  "value": true,
  "label": "Checkbox Label",

}
```

## 🎨 Example: Input Field Playground

The component ships with a complete example for styling input fields:

```html
<zui-playground>
  <template>
    <div class="input-group">
      <input type="$type" class="$variant $state" placeholder="$label" />
      <span class="helper-text $state">$helperText</span>
    </div>
  </template>

  <div name="$type" data-meta='{"type":"choose","value":"text","options":[{"name":"Text","value":"text"},{"name":"Email","value":"email"},{"name":"Password","value":"password"},{"name":"Number","value":"number"},{"name":"Tel","value":"tel"},{"name":"URL","value":"url"},{"name":"Search","value":"search"}],"label":"Input Type"}'></div>

  <div name="$variant" data-meta='{"type":"choose","value":"filled","options":[{"name":"Filled","value":"filled"},{"name":"Underlined","value":"underlined"},{"name":"Secondary","value":"secondary"},{"name":"Default","value":"default"}],"label":"Variant"}'></div>

  <div name="$state" data-meta='{"type":"choose","value":"","options":[{"name":"Default","value":""},{"name":"Error","value":"error"},{"name":"Success","value":"success"}],"label":"State"}'></div>
