My first question was: why without D3, but to be honest it's pretty good and simple :) you don't always need all D3 just for _some_ features. Nice work.

PS: the link for your github repo is kinda tricky to find at first :)

Even for bigger projects, I prefer not to use D3. Coming from a data journalism / data science background this may make sense, but from a web programming perspective, D3 has a pretty weird way of create DOM nodes etc.

I prefer a straightforward solution: a function that gets data and returns dom/virtual-dom.

Will do something about it, thanks.
