New Framework Ripple? What about Others?

That's funny how people who already has media traction can sell basically anything - unfinished, unpolished project that repeats Vuejs with React style.

It's not something bad actually, but the way it's done is just killing me slow. Ripple is not unique, on my way of creating actually new framework - Proton, I've seen so many frameworks like Ripple, so I don't really understand how people are attracted to THIS, while not attracted to anything else that really changing it.

Yeah, I guess that's just marketing, now you have to sell a open source project. Imagine how many projects die that could've changed the industry because they didn't have enough of media resource? - Probably a lot.

Why Ripple even got attention? It uses JSX, while actually not, because it uses its own .ripple files, which simply means entirely new syntax parser. It parasitize on what's loved by community and includes by what's hated, but still sold.

Maybe it's giving something better than reactive $ that Vuejs has already been doing forever?

A new syntax of mapping an array? Wait! Angular has already doing that.

You can declare components with component keyword - OMG, WTF, so you're saying I'm so idiot that I need a special keyword to declare a component?

JavaScript directly in the html? Mmm, is this some kind of punishment? I think there is a reason why developer community is up to {{foo}} syntax...

Maybe a nice tree-shaking? SSR speed? Small bundle size? Customization? Anything actually new? Well It's basically a mix of several frameworks without any change, and I'm afraid it inherits the worst qualities of all of them rather than vice versa.

So what, people are dumb? - No, people are trustful, they trust in people they are already subscribed to, so they eat what they give, even if it's undercooked meat.

Why youtubers advertise this? - Because they are dumb... well I mean they just ride on a hype wave :(

What then?

Can we just appreciate some open source projects that really require attention?

1. Back the builders, not the buzz, spotlight open source that actually make a move.


2. Stop applauding noise, promote projects that solve real problems.


3. Discover, star and support under-the-radar projects.
