A proposal to add signals to JavaScript

SMRTR summary

JavaScript Signals are proposed as a new built-in primitive for managing reactive state in applications. They aim to provide a common core for frameworks to build reactivity systems, enabling better interoperability and performance. The proposal includes APIs for state and computed signals, as well as a low-level watcher interface. While still early stage, extensive prototyping and framework integration is planned before standardization advances.
