Ask HN: What JavaScript framework/library would you use for front end only

• petite-vue

  67 8,754 0.0 TypeScript

  6kb subset of Vue optimized for progressive enhancement

  

Petite-vue (https://github.com/vuejs/petite-vue) is also an alternative to Alpine. It offers a v-scope property similar to x-data so you do most things within markup without having to jump to JS, and it will be easier to move to regular Vue if you ever need something more feature-complete down the road.

• Mithril.js

  48 13,877 3.4 JavaScript

  A JavaScript Framework for Building Brilliant Applications

  

You can give Mithril.js [0] a go. It's lightweight and has a couple additional goodies such as routing and xhr inbuilt. It has very good documentation as well.

You can also enable JSX [1] if you prefer that to hyperscript.
