    โฌ†๏ธ If you're upgrading from a previous version of Stimulus, note that the syntax for target attributes has changed to move the controller identifier into the attribute's name. The new format is data-[identifier]-target="[name]" instead of data-target="[identifier].[name]". You can still use the old syntax, but you will see a warning in the console, and support will be removed in a future version.

    The data map API from Stimulus 1.0 will continue to work but is no longer documented and should be considered internal. We suggest migrating to the new values API.
