Any reason you forged your own versus adopting Svelte or Alpine? As a fellow React hater I'd love your take on those lighter frameworks.

It started off as just a shorthand tool for creating elements:
``` div("ClassName", { childNodes: [], etc: {} }); ```
Then it grew into having a state management system. And now it's easily the best framework I've ever used... super fast, light weight, extremely malleable, easy to understand.
I keep intending to release it, but I know just how much fun it is putting something out in the world... I don't want this project to turn into my life.

Why did you hate react? It‘s really one of the less complicated frameworks out there.

It doesn't use native elements, and instead goes from React Components -> HTML Text -> Native Elements. So then the moment you have two elements interacting it falls on its face. Like forms.
It really doesn't have to be that complicated. Granted, I still use a bundler, but it's really easy to set up. I had my friend walk through it all... he seems to think it's great.
I should probably release this project some day.
