I could see this being useful for individual or small businesses that don't have a tech savvy or IT staff. The business pays a web designer to set up the site. The content can then get updated over time. WordPress sometimes is overkill and something simpler is definitely a plus.
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/sto…
> 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 An…
I'm curious about if you've done any research with this experiment yet and if so where can I find it? I'm very curious on ways to make programming more friendly/approachable, but I have found very little research that even begins to examine what a friendly/approachable programming language would even look like.
There isn't a tutorial on how to save data or layout, there someone mentioned REST.
Note: Not on the team, just searched the docs.

It is neat for sure, so are using appventor (blocks to build android apps)[1] and other shortcuts to build websites and apps. The problem is that it says simple, while talking about Git for goodness sakes; commit permissions and such. It says no code. I disagree... you need to know HTML basics to even comprehend the Mavo way. Why not just make a vanilla HTML page if that is all you need? HTML is not hard... and how i…

In the storage docs they mention that you do not need to know Git to use Mavo. They simply use Github as a backend for storage. So a beginner would merely have to setup a Github account to get persistence for their app.
After working with React/Inferno and some of the other virtual dom frameworks, I simply can never go back to templating languages baked into HTML. While this seems like a nice idea, I don't think I could use it for that reason. It's incredibly limiting to try to write your code into HTML with a small programming language built in. You spend more time fighting the embedded language then making content.
without a single line of programming code A bold statement that doesn't really seem to be supported by:
I assumed the claim was based on differentiating a markup language from programming languages. HTML (and CSS) is code, but not programming code.
Embedding your programming into HTML doesn't make it any less programming. Otherwise, you could say web programming doesn't exist since it's all just HTML script tags.

I see what you're saying, but that looks like a function call embedded in the HTML. Embedding your programming into HTML doesn't make it any less programming. Otherwise, you could say web programming doesn't exist since it's all just HTML script tags.
