I'm slightly confused... this seems like a cross between WebComponents and a very simple template language. With a bunch of pre-built components.

It's a neat idea but I feel like I'm missing something. Which part if the approach is "new" here? I'm not criticizing, I honestly feel like I must be missing something and would like to know what.

I don't understand why there is such negativity about this. They state it is not perfect and it is work in progress near the bottom of intro.

What I like about this, is that it allows quickly to make simpler sites that can be edited. I don't want to program upload images ever again, or edit fields. Why do this?!

Anyhow, storage seems to be confusing some of you, they explain/document that here http://mavo.io/docs/storage/

I think this is neat idea and we really need to innovate and move past coding crud apps all the time. Developer bootcamps are proof we are not doing anything new.

> I don't understand why there is such negativity about this.

I'm not sure I'm reading the same comments as you. None of the ones I read seem overtly negative. Mine is the closest to negative and I explicitly said that I'm just trying to understand not criticize.

You may be reading into them too much. For example, the person saying it is like Angular 1.0 could be negative or very positive depending on your view of Angular.

Edit: I take that back. The one about "not a single line of code" is actually more negative than mine. Although it also happens to be true. That is code.
