Motivation

I didn't set out to build yet another "web framework". I was very aware of the stereotypes of how common they are, and how there is a new one every day. However what I did want didn't exist and I accidentally came to have a somewhat unique background to build it.

Some of the motivations behind Butterfloat include:

• Knockout-inspired
• TSX, but not a Virtual DOM
• Pure, RxJS Observables
• Runtime dependency light: just RxJS
• Compile-time dependency light: Typescript encouraged
