vdom-util VS aleph.js

Joining this thread to say that I, too, have written a very similar function and also use jsxFactory to have JSX support in personal projects. I find that using it along with an extremely simple implementation of a kind of state listener[0] produces something really nice for small projects.

It's a bit like a jquery for the '20s.

Check aleph if you want to use react with deno. But I'd suggest sticking with Node.js and Vite as you'll get less surprises.

Here's another thing: if you want to grow from this exact setup, use deno. It has support for import maps and don't require a bundler or a separate compilation step for typescript

Maybe add aleph too (which is similar to nextjs)

https://alephjs.org/

Deno won't require nearly as much tooling as nodejs, but it still has tooling for the cases you need it.

There’s also https://alephjs.org, never used but pops up when you search for "deno react" so I assume is similar to nextjs.

Aleph.js is a full-stack framework in Deno, used as an alternative to Next.js. Aleph.js offers features like ES module imports, file-system routing, SSR & SSG, and HMR with a fast refresh.
