core VS Backbone.js

Nuxt is an open-source framework for building performant websites and full-stack applications using Vue.js. It provides performance and SEO benefits, and adds full-stack capabilities for Vue apps.

As you can see, it's a simple Single Page Application built with Vue.js where our users can sign up / sign in with a few clicks.

Similarly to Promises/A+, this effort focuses on aligning the JavaScript ecosystem. If this alignment is successful, then a standard could emerge, based on that experience. Several framework authors are collaborating here on a common model which could back their reactivity core. The current draft is based on design input from the authors/maintainers of Angular, Bubble, Ember, FAST, MobX, Preact, Qwik, RxJS, Solid, Starbeam, Svelte, Vue, Wiz, and more…

Vue.js is an open source web framework that makes developing web applications easier.

Frameworks and Libraries: There are numerous JavaScript frameworks and libraries, such as React, Angular, and Vue.js, which simplify the development of complex web applications.

Javascript in the browser React - react is a library that gives developers an application programming interface (API) to manipulate the DOM (this is React's ReactDOM package). React uses components and JSX to make building reusable code easier. docs JSX - is a syntax extension for React Javascript code that lets you write HTML-like markup in a javascript file. This makes it easier to write reusable HTML. docs State - a key react concept that guides setting and storage of data between renders. docs Hooks - a key react concept for logic triggered by state change docs Vue - is a framework for building web interfaces. Vue is lightweight and best for small projects prioritizing speed over functionality. doc Angular - web development framework. Angular is best for dynamic more feature rich sites. docs

Vue 3 Reactivity Source Code

Nonetheless, it offers nearly infinite possibilities. You can code and create anything, from a mobile app with React Native to a desktop application with Electron.js. Furthermore, JavaScript provides excellent frameworks and libraries that can be applied in various approaches, such as React, Three, Vue, Meteor, and Astro.

From your own example, here is the text from https://vuejs.org/ as of today:

> The Progressive JavaScript Framework

> An approachable, performant and versatile framework for building web user interfaces.

> Approachable - Builds on top of standard HTML, CSS and JavaScript with intuitive API and world-class documentation.

> Performant - Truly reactive, compiler-optimized rendering system that rarely requires manual optimization.

> Versatile - A rich, incrementally adoptable ecosystem that scales between a library and a full-featured framework.

Yes, performance is mentioned. But it's hardly the main selling point, and they don't even mention DOM manipulation, they're talking about the rendering in general.

Lit isn't even a framework, it's a "web components library".

> all modern frameworks

Yeah, "all modern frameworks" being one framework + one library?

Got it thanks for the context.

I've read the web app and it seems to me it is just https://backbonejs.org/ re-written in Typescript and allows JSX.

I'm very certain Typescript and JSX will have improved the DX for Backbone like apps, but it doesn't address all of the other issues that teams had with Backbone.

e.g. Cyclical event propagation, state stored in the DOM (i.e. appendChild is error prone in large code bases), etc.

What we see, a decade ago, are that many of the "popular" libraries, frameworks, and methods, not surprisingly, have gone by the wayside, a lot that have remained in current code as difficult-to-removemodernize legacy cruft (Bower, Gulp, Grunt, Backbone, Angular 1, ...), and then we have the small minority that are still here. Some that remain have had their utility lessened/questioned by platform and language improvements (jQuery, lodash, ...), but very, very few exist that are the same now as they were then. Another fun historical reference: issue #118 of "JavaScript Weekly" (February 22, 2013) includes a first link out to asm.js.

Backbone.js gives structure to web applications by providing models with key-value binding and custom events, collections with a rich API of enumerable functions, views with declarative event handling, and connects it all to your existing API over a RESTful JSON interface. site Backbone.js *Backbone.js gives structure to web applications by providing models with key-value binding and custom events…*backbonejs.org

The ajax request is made via a call to Backbone.sync() of Backbone.js, which ultimately calls jquery's $.ajax(). I haven't changed anything about how the call is made... just upgraded cordova.

my gf said it was the best. she uses backbone.js she good dev

Backbone.js

A lot of SPA frameworks and libraries also were developed. We can find out some of its on the internet. They are AngularJs, Reactjs, BackboneJs, DurandalJs,.. and a lot of third party components to make the Javascript coding more easy like RequireJs, Amplifyjs, BreezeJs...

As the internet became faster, and more reliable, and as browsers unified into “evergreen” releases, developers accepted JSON to be the only shape of data needed to travel on wires. A few years back I posted a question of which was a better framework: serving fully processed HTML scripts over Ajax, or only JSON that would be populated on client-side. See, back then, populating JSON was hand crafted, before Knockout, before Backbone, and few other players I don’t recall. The thing you could use back then was Mustache-like, which -by the way- still is a favorite of mine when venturing outside of SPA zone.
