This is great! Exactly the sort of tool, I have been waiting for!
One question is why the coupling to Next/React? I feel a design tool should not be coupled to a web framework at all.
- hoakiet98 1y agoIt's more to keep scope small until we feel confident about the experience. Theoretically, we can scale to other declarative frameworks, but we'd have to implement a parser for each. We're sticking with React/Next for now since that is the majority of use cases with plans of supporting other frameworks when the experience feels good enough. There's a comment under about Svelte support as well (which is what the initial prototype supported) and I gave a similar answer there. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44127653 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44127653
- dennisy 1y agoYeah I saw that comment. Maybe this is just a naive opinion it I do not get why you must target a framework at all VS just pure CSS/HTML and later allow people to convert into their framework. I feel that at the design stage a framework should not be discussed, since that is an implementation detail.
