I still say Mithril (https://mithril.js.org/ https://mithril.js.org/) is where it's at. I am at a company now that uses Angular 4.x and I'm not impressed with it. IMO, it's a way to make JS seem more like Spring/Java (especially with Typescript) rather than understand how JS works and use it as it is.
Not to mention the learning curve even for senior developers. Mithril took me maybe 30 minutes to understand. The entire source (https://github.com/MithrilJS/mithril.js https://github.com/MithrilJS/mithril.js) is easily read in a few hours. They have multiple committers and an active gitter chat room for any problems. Plus you can use JSX if you like it that much. And it has a nice license.
More folks need to try it out.
- elbear 9y agoI'm using Mithril with TypeScript. It's a great combo. All my Mithril views are stateless and TypeScript makes sure I pass down properly the arguments to the view. It feels almost like I'm writing Elm. Almost.
- seanwilson 9y agoAre you not at a disadvantage with it having a smaller community or is there enough content out there? I like to support new innovations but knowing I can easily find a prewritten component for Vue or Angular is a big selling point.
- wambotron 9y agoI never felt like I had any problems, to be honest. It was so quick and easy to write things, I never worried. There are a decent amount of plugins out there on github, though. Give it a shot!
