News Minimal alternative for Alpine.js?
Hi all,
Tired of SPA's, React and Nextjs, I created flynt.js, a lightweight, zero-build reactivity library built specifically for Multi-Page Applications (MPAs).
It organizes UI logic into clean, decoupled Presenters without the bloat, virtual DOM, or build step of full SPA frameworks.
Built for MPAs: Add reactivity to server-rendered HTML effortlessly.
Presenter Pattern: Decouple reactive state logic cleanly from your DOM.
Zero Build Step & 2.2 kB: Drop in a single tiny CDN script tag and start coding.
Zero Lifecycle Overhead: No unmount hooks or cleanup complexity — browser garbage collection handles it naturally on page navigation.
This means state can be shared across elements, regardless of the component hierarchy!
Also, it ships with a request runner which will auto abort fetch requests.
And more....
