alt Hacker NewsI wrote something like this too. If i need interaction, i did something with the onclicks so it just sends the function definition to the client and calls that. Its not as powerful as react but you can do basic stuff. Its good if your site is mostly static.
I was strongly thinking about doing that, but I think I prefer (for now) explicitly not having events, than having events that work kinda similar but not the same. Did you end up publishing it? Would love to have a look!
