It seems to me, that people in the Javascript world, like to constantly create new alternatives (or very similar) to existing frameworks or projects. It's not 100% a bad thing though.
Some of my thinking behind rolling my own renderer: https://youtu.be/cOfEMWV_5Rc

People keep reimplementing the same thing to the same "80%" completion level so they look good to employers, but the software is abandoned quickly once it has served its purpose as a personal branding tool.
Step 1: Someone invests a bunch of time making something new. Step 2: Someone posts it on Hacker News. Step 3: Project is immediately derided because other people have also been making new things.
what is meant by "modern web browsers"?
What I am struggling with, is the use case of a library like this. Is this oriented towards gaming or substitude something like d3.js or is it has a simplier api, for the developer than other libraries. Or is it a library to showcase the cool stuff that can be done with new technologies. I think the main difference and the selling point is that it is "renderer agnostic" but I don't understand the benefits of that.
A while back I used Choc (http://www.fullstack.io/choc/) to teach JavaScript to a high school class. A lot of Two's competitors have APIs that take into account things like performance and extensibility, but are harder to explain because of it. It was great to have a simple API that got out of the way and allowed me to teach things like if statements, for loops and functions.
Is that project still alive ? Last two commits are from march this year and then there's nothing all the way back to july '14
Maybe the autor thinks it is complete. EDIT: Oh wait, is the author in this thread? He can answer that.

It is! I work on the dev branch and other branches when I'm making new changes. EDIT: I mostly use the library though (I use it everyday) rather than constantly develop new features.
This project is absolutely dead

Sounds good, but I just looked at the dev branch. One small commit from 15 july 2015. then nothing till december '14 . This project is absolutely dead
