Lightweight replacement of React + MobX (I hope in future Angular/Vue), which does not use the virtual DOM comparison, but the re-render of only the changed parts. Abandon the HTML template in favor of their interpretation in JS, give to us tree-shaking is components/templates and the speed of work increases since the time to parse the template is zero. Use requestAnimationFrame
for change detection, which allows batch updates to do.
The library allows you to create quick and responsive interfaces using only JS / TS. With this you will get the minimum application size, speed and ease of development.

- Size - 4.1 kB or 1.38 kB gzipped.
- The library rewrites only changes and only when it is necessary.
- Performance - going to guarantee 60 fps.
- Names of imported functions and classes are not finally and can be discussed.
- There is a tree-shaking for components and templates !!!.
Here will be good api
- The performance of user interaction and interface speed.
- The large size of top frameworks (Angular / React / VueJs).
- Implements the component approach of creating interfaces with optimal speed, and the least number of a possible hacks.
- The ability of support a tree-shaking in a component's templates.
- Component should be splited by a file (template/reactive/listeners).
- The support of events.
- Lifecycle hooks
onInit
andonDestroy
. - The support of inputs.
if
condition andfor
directive.- Routing classes and attributes bindings.
- Reactive styles.
- Proper types annotation
- Routing.
Help me please if you are interested.
