Although I'm sure it is possible to make a generic component
architecture in Javascript I highly doubt that it makes sense. JS is
almost all about UI and DOM manipulation, and having something as
abstract as a generic component framework for that may be an
abstraction too far. So what you want is a framework for making
modular JS clients.

And there are tons and tons of modular frameworks for making front-end
apps in Javascript already. Creating another one probably doesn't make
any sense, at least not until you can explain exactly why you can't
use anyone of those that exist.
