alt Hacker NewsMost new frameworks start as the "lightweight" option to whatever more mature options exist at the time. This is no argument for adoption.
Please post again 10 years from now after you have added all the bloat your users request and handled all the edge cases you don't yet understand.
If you are still lighter than a react button...that will be news worthy.

I don’t think React has ever been considered lightweight, judging from the mostly negative reactions from this website when it first came out.
Solid.js is doing amazing w/re to its bundle size. Its been in development for something between 6-9 years depending on how you count and it is still very very slim.
I feel the same. I started using svelte to build widgets with few requirements that were deployed as web components, it was great for that.
So, nothing is worthy of discussion or can claim any benefits over the incumbents until it has become an incumbent itself? How is it supposed to attract the necessary users to get bloated if they can’t talk about it in relation to the established players?
