Not knocking on your effort here, but you think that it would have taken more effort to submit a PR to Vue than building an entirely new open source framework from scratch over the course of several years?

If so, there is something very wrong with the state of open source development.

Working on Vue would take similar effort, deleting tons of the code and rewriting it.

Part of it is that this is project started as a way for me to learn what goes on under the hood of libraries like React and Vue. While I made this, I wrote a compiler (lex + parse + generate), virtual DOM engine, reactivity system, and more!

I've started to take Moon in a different direction than Vue, and in the future it will most likely be even more different than Vue.

Is that supposed to be good news?
