I genuinely don't understand why so many people want to abstract the platform away in projects that only run on a single platform (the browser in this case). You want to be as close to your platform as possible if you care about performance and resource use.

So make a cute name and logo, make a website using words like "superhero" and "fun!", and make an announcement on Hacker News (where someone will invariably make some comment about not needing a framework lol)... then toss it in the pile with the thousands of other (unmaintained) front end frameworks.
