Looks like a neat project. What is the ultimate goal of it? I gather it's to do a subset of what e.g. Vue does, with simplified API and a small footprint. Is that accurate?

Thanks! It used to be a smaller version of Vue aiming to be a small subset of it. For the v1 beta (what the current documentation is for) I decided to change up the API to be something more simple that can still scale well for larger projects.

Is this still a non-keyed implementation? Will you ever be adding mix-ins? Both of these kept me from using this library prior to the current re-write.

For now, it is non-keyed. As I mentioned in some other comments I just wanted to get a beta out as I've been rewriting Moon for about a year and it's finally gotten to a semi-usable state.

A keyed implementation, single-file components (multi-file components exist with Moon CLI but I've started to like single-file components), custom DOM events, component inserts, and an official router are on my todo list. Hopefully you'll get to use the library this time :)
