As you already suspected, the "CategoryDelegate{}" in this case means, 
that an instance of this Component will be created and assigned to the 
delegate property. Without the braces, it tries to find an instance of a 
Component with the "id: CategoryDelegate".
In this case for the "footer" it references "quitButtonDelegate" by ID.
