Yeah, the moment I read "Serve your app as XML" my brain instinctively began to move on but it's really just HTML-like semantic snippets that remind me of WebComponents. Example:

https://github.com/Instawork/hyperview/blob/master/demo/back...

However, this warning statement should be in bold at the top: "If your app relies on offline data or local computations, Hyperview won't be the right choice."

For that reason, I lean toward https://volt.build/

A key distinction here is that Hyperview is free, which makes the offline capabilities or lack thereof a more than reasonable tradeoff IMO.

Volt looks great, but $15/mo. for the basic plan, $37/mo. for the pro plan that you likely need for the ad hoc builds alone (unless you test in prod).

If it doesn't do offline data or local computations what is the point?
