    RawJS-style development (using whatever library to accelerate document.createElement) becomes more appropriate the more divergent your UI is. This is the kind of thing I've found m…

    RawJS library author here. What I meant was that it's a small library with a relatively small surface area for bugs, and it's been under pressure from a few different projects for …

    You can already do encapsulation without them by using TypeScript namespaces. It's sad that namespaces didn't become part of JavaScript. I really dislike having to include every la…

    RawJS author here. I've been working on said large scale projects for 20 years. Thank you for your positive encouragement.

    RawJS author here. I think it's probably more fair to say that SolidJS is "insanely close" to React rather than RawJS.

    RawJS library author here. The main thing RawJS brings is ergonomics when creating element hierarchies of plain HTMLElement instances. I don't see JSX as something that does this v…

    Library author here. I didn't fork anything. And your link just pr0n'd me in a coffee shop. Thank you.

    Author here. It was a tongue-in-cheek comment. Let it slide.

    Example author here. I have to say this is a bit disingenuous. You pulled the segmented button component which in a real-world environment would just be a part of a library. You sh…

    RawJS library author here. Honestly this whole thing blew up so fast I wasn't expecting any of this. The home page for the website isn't even done yet.

    Repo author here. You have to admit at least admit that minimizing dependencies is an admirable goal (despite my tougue-in-cheek comments in the readmes I write)

    RawJS library author here. I wish I could upvote your comment a thousand times, after spending literally the whole day so far trying to pour water on a burning building.

    RawJS library author here. There's a demo app here: https://github.com/squaresapp/rawjs-sample (Does that help you? Or do you think it still needs more?) I'll get on updating the r…

    RawJS library author here. Thanks for +1'ing this idea. I like what that website did and I might need to build something similar.

    Repo author here. Sorry–maybe not the best choice of words. By "no bundler, no build system", it kind of means "no webpack, rollup, gulp, etc". I tend to think of TypeScript as a n…

    RawJS library author here. Moving away from modules is definitely not what I've observed in the community, I see no evidence that this is "the direction the community is moving". T…

    This take is really on-point. I'd like to add that from my experience, the more "out there" and the less "rudimentary" your UI and general app is, the more the frameworks really ge…

    RawJS library author here. $.append appends, in the name ".append". Though The point of RawJS is to help with element constructions. jQuery was a god-send back in the day for manip…

    The 403 on the sourcemap is by design (I might change this), I'll have to look into the stack overflow though...

    I guess I need a full-screen button to expand the docs pane.

    Yes but they're all isolated / custom-built at the moment ... other than the actual class editor which is built using the Back.io public API (it's a self-hosted system)
