> Nue’s model-first approach keeps things clean and scalable

Like I understand why you say this, but as someone who spent the 2000s building "model first" web apps (and desktop applications), I don't miss it in the slightest. Immediate mode-esque render loops didn't catch on just because it's a fad, it really does fit a lot of highly interactive things better.

Of course the bigger problem is people using something that's great for heavily interactive web applications for building things that _don't need_ that interactivity...

Nue looks great, and I think it stands on it's own two feet. The constant React bashing just turns me off it more than anything (and that's not about React specifically, I have no real love for it, just that kind of project marketing isn't my cup of tea)

Thanks for your reply! The misconception might stem from the lack of clarity in the documentation regarding how islands (components) work.

- How do I declare local states (instance variables) in an island?

- How do I fetch and display data from an API?

- Where should we place data that is normally kept in contexts/stores in other frameworks?

These are common problems faced when developing an SPA, but missing in the documentation.

hmm, it looks like you've got a bug in the demo app. if you type too quickly into the search bar, the entire app slows to a halt.

seems like you'd want to move the filtering logic off the main thread, or you'd want to reinvent React's "Fiber" suspendable rendering architecture.
