It's not just "json".
It's a templating language, and a scripting language serialized down to a json. Of course any real app has to have some interactivity, and some state, and work with that state, push it to a server, maybe pull it from a server. Way to cumbersome to do it here.
This would probably be the "static site" equivalent in native land, but already with exponent/react/weex you have a much easier time setting things up.
At best, this can be called a good experiment.
- fagnerbrack 10y agoIt has everything to do with JSON. It's a REST client that produces UI elements using a JSON-like hypermedia type.
- anilgulecha 10y agoPerhaps I was too negative in my tone in my parent message. My point is that you can make anything a json. For example site = {html: "..", js: "..", css: ".."} The above is technically a json, but it would be incorrect to refer to above as "build websites with json". It's markup, styling and scripts simply serialized to a json. So rather than a framework, it becomes just a transport layer. Hope that clarifies why I do not think of Jasonette as "json" defined native app. "Create your own native Android app with nothing but JSON." is incorrect, as you're actually using scripting etc in there.
