Umm, why do new microframeworks constantly capture HN attention? I'm trying to understand the ecosystem between Vue and VanillaJS.


Because there was once a time when Vue was being introduced on HN. They need to start somewhere.


LemonadeJS is pretty much vanilla, no depencies, no transpiling.


When people say "VanillaJS" they typically mean "no framework, just browser APIs"


Exact, you can run under the browser. No framework.


Right but it itself is a framework. When people say "vanilla JS" they typically mean building an app with just browser APIs.



how's it compare to alpinejs and stimulus?
