From Dominic Gannaway, the creator of Inferno, who worked on React at Meta and on Svelte 5 at Vercel. Feels like a hybrid of React and Svelte 3/4.

It stings a little, as a long time Svelte developer that still feels a sense of loss after Svelte 5’s departure from Svelte 3/4’s simplicity — a departure pioneered by Dominic.

That sounds like a drug addiction. It is possible to program without frameworks.

One could also call it a passion, no?

Maybe too much passion. It seems he always start working without a framework but thinks the result is so good that it becomes a framework

wow, i can't believe it. after all this time, another js framework!!?

well, I am glad that Dominic is honest about it having lots of bigs, so people won't jump at at it.

though, I wish he has a added section on why he ruled out contributing to svelte/vue/solid etc

I contributed to React and Svelte on their core teams for years. Sometimes you just need to break free
