coldbox-platform VS marko

It's a whole weird world that just doesn't die. I worked at a place with ~ half a million lines of CF last year. There is a thing called CF Script which has vaguely JS-like syntax which can be used instead of the XML-based logic. There are even open-source frameworks built on top, with religious quotes in the documentation for some reason[0].

SolidJS and Tauri form another potent combination for creating performant, lightweight, and secure experiences. SolidJS is a reactive UI library that is similar to Svelte in the way it compiles away reactivity and updates the DOM directly, but it also incorporates a fine-grained reactivity system reminiscent of libraries like Marko, Knockout, and MobX.

Marko is a huge leap in the right direction. It has streaming, partial hydration, a compiler that optimizes your output, and a small runtime. I’ve also heard through the grapevine that Marko V6 also adds resumability to the framework as well.

Nevertheless, the future of JS frameworks is exciting. As we’ve seen from the data, Astro is doing some things right alongside Qwik. However, more noteworthy frameworks such as Marko and Solid are also paving the path forward with some similar traits and better performance benchmarks. We’ve come back full circle in web development - from PHP/Rails to SPAs and now back to SSR. Maybe we just need to break the cycle.

If you want more, take a look on Marko, fresh, qwik or pug. Dind't tested yet but they look like same as Nunjucks.
