This was beautifully composed. I also use Mithril.js for most if not all my SPA builds. It’s an 8kb solid little framework and I can cook it into virtually any web application because of this.

Vue and React are great but in my experience they’re virtually an overkill for most projects.

The answer is hype. Hype can be the demise sometimes.
