Flarum is a sizable open source application that uses Mithril.js as the front-end framework. Flarum devs: I'm wondering, how well did Mithril scale and are you happy with the choice?

Just before releasing stable we revisited this choice and looked at alternatives like vuejs, react and svelte. But mithril came out as a winner, it's very thin, extremely flexible and extensible. Especially extensibility - for us - has been a huge factor, because that is Flarums superpower.

Now that we've added typescript, things only became easier.
