Asynchronous data fetching / other effects

Hey, first of all thank you for releasing this - looks great so far! 🙂

I have gotten a basic app working now, with some placeholder interactions. Now I would like to show some “live data” in the Home Tab, and was wondering if there was an example for this or if you had any hints. My attempts either resulted in stale state, that was only refreshed after another interaction, or lots of requests triggered that didn’t do anything at all 🙈

Something like “send a GET request on load, fetch data, show result to user”. In a normal React app I’d use useEffect(() => fetch(requestTarget).then(data => setState(data)), [requestTarget]) or something like that and I’d expect that to cause an update of the view. However that didn’t seem to work for me 🤔

Closing this for #19

Ah yeah, that seems reasonable-- can’t think of a case that doesn’t cover off hand
