Hacker News Reader

Wappalyzer's results for example.com, a 1.3 KB static page with no JS or sub-requests, include eight JS frameworks and two web font providers. Its results for facebook.com include a web framework made by Yahoo and deprecated in 2014. It says Youtube is built on WordPress, and HN is a React app with custom fonts.

> HN is a React app with custom fonts

I only see that HN runs on NGinx.

I was using the "Technology lookup" box on the homepage, testing with the extension I get only Nginx too. And Youtube seems right and example.com maybe right, though nothing at all for Facebook.

Heavy stuff.

Ember used to require jQuery but recently moved to removing it by default; users can opt-in if they still need it. Once the project moves to a later version of Ember I suspect the jQuery bit will drop off. (Who knows, though...)

They also are using Stencil for many of their web components in the app, like the music video player. http://stenciljs.com

Looks like Ember for the most part. Look at the code, it's not minified, yet...

It would be nice to save the code and upload it to github.com, is there a tool to make this automatically?

wget can do this, the --mirror option is probably a good start along with --page-requisite.

That's weird. Ember minifies by default

This is implemented using Ember which is the spiritual successor to SproutCore

Looks like a combination of Ember and web components.

Yep and the web components are built with Stencil: http://stenciljs.com/
