Specs
Ranked in these QuestionsQuestion Ranking
Pros
Pro Fast and leightweight
The framework is only approx. 10 kilobytes in size and 2k lines of code. The custom tags can be lazy-loaded or preloaded. The rendering process is fast and selective, so only updated elements are rendered.
Pro IDE for progamming
Metayota offers an IDE for programming or designing tags for this framework. There is no programming knowledge needed and all tags can be tested instantly.
Pro Clean Code / Clean HTML
Readable, easy to maintain and clean code. The Metayota HTML Engine does not add any non-standard HTML elements to your code or any unintended tags or attributes. The HTML can be written, like it was intended by the designer. Only elements which are finished with rendering are added to the DOM (no flickering).
Pro Great tooling and language support
Very good CLI and webpack, bundling, testing, deployment support. Deep TypeScript integration and support.
Cons
Con Slightly over-engineered
Very enterprisey - made for huge architectures and with tons of declarative, non-intuitive annotations it makes it overkill for very small projects.
Con Native i18n support over-engineered
Not developer-friendly. Switching languages need reloading the whole page. There are third party solutions that work better.
