On: Vanilla Prime: A simpler, more sustainable way of ...

[morrvs]

I was pondering if "vanilla" should be part of the name as well. In the end I felt I got sufficiently close to the vanilla flavor you describe, and the name conveys the "as little as possible" approach. Hope it's not too misleading!

I do like the "plus" idea, now that you mention it! Will think about it :)

Vanilla JS has also been a long-time joke about how modern javascript has advanced far enough not to need libraries for a lot of stuff people still reach for: http://vanilla-js.com/

Goes back to 2012 unchanged (hence the selection of libraries compared against): https://web.archive.org/web/20120825232614/http://vanilla-js...

Edit to add: Having been around in that era, I see "Vanilla Prime" as a whole new framework, nothing vanilla about it.

Maybe vanillin, the essence of vanilla, but not quite the same thing?

Honestly, I think it is totally misleading. As misleading as calling cloud services serverless. Vanilla JS already have a well-established meaning
