On: Show HN: An Isomorphic JavaScript Framework Faster Than React

[rattray]

Agreed. Mithril's performance is incredible, and it's also closer to React in philosophy. That's the alternative I'd be looking at (perhaps along with Vue, which also goes unmentioned).

EDIT: though, one difference is this supports server-side rendering out of the box, while Mithril requires a (tiny) third-party module: https://www.npmjs.com/package/mithril-node-render

There's also another more ambitious Mithril isomorphism project called misojs https://github.com/jsguy/misojs

Definitely worth looking into if you're looking for a full stack solution.

I wish Vue were more popular. It has one of the nicest APIs of all the JS frameworks and offers good performance.
