I don't get how this would be more "ai friendly" than other frameworks, that kind of propositions should be backed by more concrete proof. I know that this is a kind of open problem but at least show me this can be easily generated with common models without an enormous reference prompt.

Another thing is that this looks like any other framework out there. I think you can map every one of it's features mostly 1-1 to SolidJS. What is the novelty here? The slightly changed js syntax with "component", "@" and "#"?

I would like to see more radical and new ideas in the js space, expecially in this period. Maybe a new take on Elm to get stronger UI stability guarantees. Or even just some very good tooling to reason about very large reactivity graphs at runtime and (maybe also at) compile time.

That said I still appreciate the work and in particular all the effort spent making the new syntax work in all common editors, I see they support vscode, intellij, sublime, ...

Edit: In the actual documentation they provide an llm.txt https://www.ripplejs.com/llms.txt

Most if not all llms are producing Markdown instead of HTML as the primary output. Markdown has a simpler syntax that basically uses fewer tokens compared to HTML Similarly, Ripple appears to express a complex structure in simple terms compared to React or HTML or whatever. No wonder most AI dev tools operate in React with web previews abstracting away the setup process.

Higher abstractions appear to be cost efficient(both training & inference time - output generation). All that is required is to provide the model with a document containing rules about ripplejs(in this case) and go from there...more like llms.txt or agent.md or simply documentation. Any DSL would fit in a single file and easily consumed by a model.
