  lateralusEvents: {
    anotherComponentChanged: 'onAnotherComponentChanged',

    anotherComponentDestroyed: function () {
      // ...
    }
  },

  onAnotherComponentChanged: function () {
    // ...
  }
});

A map of functions or string references to functions that will handle events emitted by this.model.

const ExtendedComponent = Lateralus.View.extend({
  modelEvents: {

      // ...
    }
  }
});

A map of functions that will handle Lateralus.mixins#collect calls. Each of the functions attached to this Object should return a value. These functions must be completely synchronous.

const App = Lateralus.beget(function () {
  Lateralus.apply(this, arguments);
});

_.extend(App.prototype, {
  provide: {
    demoData: function () {
      return 1;
    }
  }
});

const app = new App();
const ComponentSubclass = Lateralus.Component.extend({
  name: 'provider',
  provide: {
    demoData: function () {
      return 2;
    }
  }
});

app.addComponent(ComponentSubclass);
console.log(app.collect('demoData')); // [1, 2]
