 /**
- * Provides component for rendering elements written in SJDON notation.
+ *  SuiWeb 
+ *  Simple User Interface Tool for Web Exercises
+ * 
+ *  @author   bkrt
+ *  @version  0.3.4
+ *  @date     11.12.2021
+ *
+ *  0.3.4 - only null or undefined qualify as uninitialized state
+ *  0.3.3 - parseSJDON rewritten to use createElement
+ *        - flatten children array for props.children in JSX
+ *  0.3.2 - save and restore of active element improved 
+ *  0.3.1 - parseSJDON rewritten 
+ *  0.3.0 - style property 
+ *  0.2.3 - ES6 modules
+ *  0.2.2 - component state and hooks
+ *  0.2.1 - parse SJDON rewritten, function components 
+ *  0.2.0 - render single SJDON structures to DOM
+ * 
+ *  Based on ideas and code from 
+ *  Rodrigo Pombo: Build your own React
+ *  https://pomb.us/build-your-own-react/
+ * 
+ *  Thanks to Rodrigo Pombo for a great tutorial and for sharing the 
+ *  code of the Didact library. Didact is a much more sophisticated
+ *  re-implementtation of React's basics than the simple SuiWeb.
