Looks promising. Is this battle-tested yet? I.e. is there a web app with a non-trivial amount of traffic that is using Riot at the moment?
The main selling point of React is that it is actually tested against millions of users and browser configurations as a part of Facebook UI.
- tipiirai 12y agomuut.com uses Riot for authentication, signups and for forum settings which is a fairly large application. The site is fairly popular. Of course React is much more tested and probably more solid at this point and Riot 2.0 is just released. But one major benefit for Riot is that there is indeed 24x less code to maintain and so much less weak spots to take care of.
- therealunreal 12y agoDo you think that the 24x less code is because of its exceptional design? Or is it missing some features?
- Nekorosu 12y agoThey have a different approach. There are some details under "Same but different" part of comparison to React. https://muut.com/riotjs/compare.html https://muut.com/riotjs/compare.html
- coldtea 12y agoSome of the features might be redundant (at least for some use cases) so it's not like "missing features" is necessarily a deal-breaker. Not that you said so, but it's something one can think when he hears that Riot might be "missing stuff".
- tipiirai 12y agoThe design is vastly different. DOM update logic is more straightforward. We realized that heavy diffing is not needed.
