this is the most underwhelming launch of a web framework. doc pages say "coming soon". no explanation or differentiator on the landing page forced to click "getting started" worst of all its just another JSX wrapper and some routing calls with states in some language you won't be able to easily hire/replace people. many lessons to be learned from this poor execution on top of the framework fatigue

What launch? What execution? Some random person just posted to HN a link that happens to be publicly viewable. How does that translate to 'launching a framework'?

  so im not allowed to criticize it because somebody posted a random link to it?

    Of course you are allowed to criticize it, but at least criticize it for what it's trying to do, not based on some criteria that you just made up? Do you criticize water for not being dry?

Not sure if this is a launch or anything. I came across this on an Elixir forum and found it interesting enough to be posted on HN. That's it. Not sure why everything must be a "launch" - there is more in life than drinking the kool-aid of start-ups. Not everything needs/wants to be the JS-bro full stack framework of the week. Like, playing with some tech and some ideas just for the f* of it.

  Thanks for the context. Interesting how it made the front page without a single component though (coming soon.) I guess the crowd just loves idiomatic frameworks, especially in cool languages.

  yeah, guess you gotta be careful with that, maybe there should be a tag like [Found] or [Discovered] so people don't jump to the conclusion that this is your framework that you're looking for critical feedback on.

    It's the other way around. People should only assume the poster is looking for critical feedback when they see "Show HN" in the title. Which is not to say this can't be critiqued, but the grandparent was way off base https://news.ycombinator.com/show https://news.ycombinator.com/show
