#2Fantastic. Any working project brings value to the world.
What did you learn from doing this one?
What makes your framework different?

#3Congrats on launching a working product!
What's the rationale behind view.py?

#4Wow I like it, simple like Flask, but with the HTML in the same file (as opposed to the jinja templates) which is a pattern I really like!
Makes me wonder if you could integrate this ambition to do the web-stuff in your Python file with the FastAPI/Pydantic BaseModel situation. Like a HTML templating library made out of Python data classes (or Pydantic BaseModels).
Either way, I respect the ambition! :) Always cool to see web stuff with Python.

#7I went over the docs and couldn’t find anything about state management and client/server actions.
I’m guessing this would be similar to LiveView? If so, I’m not sure Python will handle the concurrency as well as Elixir…
Edit: I see now that the goal is to compile this to JS, so I’m assuming it’s going to be quite the opposite of LiveView and will do everything on the client?

#9What is missing from the web framework space is a headless ui components merged with a db layer. Most of these frameworks repeat old patterns. Nothing has been able to break through and give us something truly revolutionary like Rails did.
Web frameworks need to be a visual medium where you can create ui using visual tools and the "backend" side of things merge seamlessly.
