Is there an implicit reference to the current component?

As a newbie, I am wondering whether there is any way, I can refer to the current component's attributes and methods from an @click handler without giving the component an explicit name via ref="someref"? It seems to me, it could be useful to have some special ref that always refers to the current component when used inside a handler, e.g. $self or something like that. Also, what is this in this context? Could that be used? It does not seem to be the component.

By using this context, you can refer to the current component's attributes and methods.

This is a playground.

Hope this helps :)

Hi Rudy, I don't mean the component in which the element is used. Rather, I want to address the element (or possibly the embedded component) itself. So, in your example, I would like to access attributes/methods of the h1 element, not the App itself.
