Nice work. I've been following Nue for a while now. Stripping away (obsolete) abstractions in favour of what the web now can do natively is liberating.

Nuejs uses markdown, which is not web. You cant claim to be standards-first, yet use something that is 100% non web-standard.

That is before we talk about their use of 'bun', which is famously my-way-or-highway engine.

    Damn, bitpush, mind easing off this crusade you're on? Your apparent anger adds little to the discussion.

    Also I love how instead of standard JavaScript, Nue wants everyone to learn its own custom templating language.

    Obviously not a web standard, but Markdown is the closest one we have for content. Right?

    • bitpush a day ago

      Yes, and I like markdown.

      But Nuejs claims to be standards-first. The entire premise of the framework is "All these other frameworks bring their own stuff, and have lost the plot on how beautiful HTML, CSS and JS can be", and then they turn around and use Markdown (not-standard), cli (not standard), bun (not standard).
