Allow definition of targets in kebab-case but access via camelCase #187
Description
For attributes, I define in the markup data-my-attr-name and in the controller as @attr myAttrName
For targets however, I have to define the target name in both the markup and the controller using camelCase:
data-targets="my-controller.myTargetsName" and @targets myTargetsName
I think it would be nice (more consistent?) if the markup could support kebab-case.

Thanks @erinnachen thats some great feedback!
This sounds like it might be a breaking change. If we're making a breaking change I wonder if we can really think about improving ergonomics for actions, targets and attrs to make them all consistent?
data-prefix? This felt like a safe choice but it's quite ugly@attr fooBarmapped to the html attributefooBar? IIRC attributes are case insensitive which could cause problems 🤷♂️rccc commentedon Dec 19, 2022
Hello,
Let me add a comment about syntax :
Why
data-targets="my-controller.myTargetsName"rather than
data-targets="myTargetsName"like stimulus (without "my-controller") ?Is that the component root element does not corresponds to controller element ("this.element") in stimumlus ?
Thanks in advance
Eric
