Show HN: Lucia – 3kB Vue Alternative

Re:Show HN: Lucia – 3kB Vue Alternative by franciscop on Sunday October 25, 2020 @02:42PM (#24888733)

I am a bit confused with the readme, is it a jQuery or a Vue alternative? Those are very different:

> "a drop-in replacement for jQuery and vanilla JavaScript web apps"

> "provides a declarative API similar to Vue to create views"

But reading further from the code samples it seems like a Vue replacement and not a jQuery replacement. I made a 2.5kb jQuery replacement back on the day so was very curious if this would be another: https://umbrellajs.com/

I'd also recommend the author to use a spellchecker, since I've found typos generally decrease trust on a project and I can see two on the second paragraph alone.

Hi there, I agree the way I tried to communicate Lucia was kind of confusing - I'm pretty new to the javascript library space and I wasn't sure how to correctly communicate it. As per the other comments on this post, I'll definitely be shifting towards describing it as a Vue/Alpine alternative.

UmbrellaJS looks really cool! I just left a star

I'm just discovering UmbrellaJS. This is pretty sweet. I hate to say it but I like jQuery but don't like the heavy load times it comes with.

Although, yes, I don't need jQuery but I would love to do things easily without bloating up my code.

We will be looking into UmbrellaJS more.. thanks for this.
