I have been thinking for a while to create a new library/framework that composes the features of Tailwind/DaisyUI and HTMX/Unpoly/Hotwire into a SwiftUI like declarative template language (forcing these features into HTML attributes makes HTML bloated/difficult to write) that eventually generates all the HTML, JS, CSS code in the background.
I am tired of MVC frameworks, SPAs, writing CSS, JS, dealing with tooling, setting up IDEs to format the code properly, etc, I just want to create nice webapps, and want my app designed nicely from the first line of code I write.
- _connerc 3y agohave you thought about low code platforms?
- zsoltkacsandi 3y agoWhy would I? I didn't say that I don't want to write code, but don't want to deal with this frontend madness. Other platforms (Android, Swift, desktop, etc), has been able to solve that the web hasn't been able to do in 30 years.
- kristiandupont 3y agoI on the other hand find that "npm create vite@latest" is orders of magnitude simpler than working with any of the Android or iOS developer environments. I can't speak to "desktop" as I haven't done anything like that in 10 years, but I have a feeling that it would be similar. Could it perhaps be that you are confusing familiarity with simplicity?
- zsoltkacsandi 3y agoPlease show me how Vite helps you to work in one language instead of three.
- Rumudiez 3y agoCSS is a feature, not a bug
