In this case the idea that 100% of the app lives in the HTML document seems like the reason just another JS framework wouldn't accomplish their goals.

- mastrsushi 5y agoJust another framework vs just another programming language. If the project lives in HTML, it doesn't matter what language it's written in. So it would be reasonable to choose one that developers are already familiar with.
- slver 5y agoTechnically all JS also lives in the HTML document. All JS is either in HTML attributes, in HTML script blocks, or referred to from HTML script blocks. The HTML page was always the boss. There's simply no reason for what's done here. Also, reminder, one reason why we like external assets is because they don't change (as often) while the HTML document is often dynamic (and hence not cacheable).
