I 100% agree, and I don't see why you're being downvoted.

I frankly see this approach as the Wrong Way at this point. I hate that every new framework comes out with its own take on HTML attributes.

And zero TypeScript support? Seriously?

This is a non-starter framework.

Completely agree.

Whenever html attributes start containing logic is when the templating engine has just implemented its own programming language - poorly.

Yup.

Regretfully we seem to be in the minority, though. I expect more of the HN readership, but apparently the instant gratification culture permeates it here as well.

I do not see it like this. I will not suggest this is the proper way to do a big web application. Similarly, bash is not the proper language to use for a serious software but for very small tasks, bash may be enough. Similarly, when you build a MVP, this mini framework is probably sufficient and even when your project matures, removing this framework will not be the priority.

Except, this "mini framework" is not really easier than React and when the project matures, replacing it with a real framework will be a huge hassle.
