Frameworks

Variety of frameworks​

So .. many.. choices ...

React, Angular, Vue, htmx, Svelte, Ember, Backbone, Meteor, Aurelia, Polymer, Mihtril, Express, Sails, Koa, LoopBack, Hapy, OpenUI5, Feathers, Dojo, Web Components, ...

Usage of frameworks/libraries​

Most of the JS frontend libraries/frameworks are only concerned with UI. Several libraries are needed to get everything.

Writing bigger/huge apps in JS gets messy really quickly.

  • Routing
  • State management
  • Dependency injection
  • Data binding
  • Signaling
  • Communication between modules
  • Localization
  • Animations
  • Mixing html and js / templating
  • Typescript
  • Building

Lightweight frameworks​

  • next.js - react based
  • nuxt - vue based

Actual full JS Frameworks​

  • Angular
  • Aurelia

During this course​

Initial plan

  • React – View library from FB. State management gets complex.
  • Vue.js – View library, inspired by React. Simple, lightweight.
  • to be decided... Svelte? htmx?
