vecty VS hyperscript

Vecty

It depends on how specifically you don't want to write HTML/CSS/JS and how broad your definition of "frontend" is. There are a handful of all-go frontend frameworks such as Vecty and Vugu of varying maturity and completeness. Then there's other libraries that more or less have you write HTML tags in go, such as go-app.

It draws on Go's syscall/js library as inspiration, which is pretty powerful (I wrote a pretty popular React-like framework using it a while back.)

A note on wasm: I'm building a hobby project with it right now and have tried different frameworks, I tried vecty which is nice to compile but full of bugs and unexpected behavior. I'm now on vugu which works better but is still harder to work with than a JS framework.

https://github.com/hexops/vecty/ is a framework for developing dynamic web frontends in Go. It's not production-ready, and will likely get some rewrites once generics drop, but it's pretty neat (I'm a contributor).

There's Vecty, though it's likely to get a bit of a redesign once generics drops.

How does it compare to https://github.com/hexops/vecty or https://github.com/bep/gr ?

Reminds me of Vecty from the GopherJS project: https://github.com/hexops/vecty .

There is also a working integration with Django that enables the use of neat-html as a template backend, however it isn't up on GitHub yet.

I find the space of HTML generation libraries which can leverage the power of Python, really interesting.

Does anyone else get this confused with https://github.com/hyperhype/hyperscript ?

This works like Reactʼs createElement function. Or a library such as hyperscript. Sure, weʼd prefer JSX for its much reduced cognitive load. But our alternative here is the DOM methods such as createElement. Unless we want to load up a bulky library such as React, that is.

Consider looking at hyperscript, which is a plain-javascript library for constructing html nodes (NOT a transpiler). Similar to what you have here, but way nicer

In fairness, there's a lot of overlap between embedded DSLs and libraries — a library like Hyperscript for generating HTML in JavaScript is in many ways a DSL, but it's also just a bunch of functions that are easy to put together in a particular way. But this is often good enough!

Hyperscript (https://github.com/hyperhype/hyperscript) is actually quite nice when you get used to it, and I actually prefer it over JSX. Pair it with something like microh[0], and it gets even better.

The naming of this project clashes horribly with https://github.com/hyperhype/hyperscript. It's not like it's in a different ecosystem or something. It is a web project that is guaranteed to cause confusion.

With Mithril.js, you generate HTML using a hyperscript dialect like this:

I'm confused. Hyperscript is supposed to be an alternative way to writing JSX.

Hyperscript.org doesn't seem to be related to this at all?

The reason is dead simple. It's exported as h because it's a hypescript function. So what exactly is hypescript?
