No code examples or clear docs

Lightweight new frameworks tend to add bloat over time
From 2 comments
Most new frameworks start as the "lightweight" option to whatever more mature options exist at the time. This is no argument for adoption. Please post again 10 years from now…
canterburry on HNToday it’s Nue. Tomorrow it’ll be Olde and we’ll complain about all the boilerplate or repetitive update logic we now have to write.

Technical details on change tracking and metrics

I wish instead of this marketing article there were technical details, for example: what method of change tracking is used (proxies Vue-style or recomputing everything…

This is great. But I went for Svelte. Invested in Svelte and SvelteKit. Wrote a decent sized app (not toy example, pretty feature right, tens of forms and screens if you will)…
