    Hey HN, I'd like to share a fun project I've been working on: mizu.js. It's a js library that add functional attributes support into your html, designed to be a simple and flexible alternative to fully-fledged web frameworks (such as Vue, React, and Angular), while offering more capabilities than other lightweight options (like Alpine.js and htmx). As it's written using modern ES features and due to its isomorphic nature, it can be run in both browsers and runtimes (Node, Deno, Bun) without any changes. This makes it ideal for client-side and server-side rendering, as well as static site…

    I've been building a web UI library for a side project of mine. I thought it might be useful to others, so I'm releasing it as open source. To put it simply, I realized that most of my pain points with React come from its declarative model ui=f(state). So I'm trying something that I'm calling "imperative JSX." Instead of treating JSX as the source of truth for your UI, it essentially becomes a query interface for DOM manipulation. I first had the idea for it a few months ago, and only began writing it in earnest last week, so it's extremely early and nowhere near production-ready. Still, I'd…

    * https://sparser.io * https://github.com/Unibeautify/sparser This is my attempt at creating a universal language parser. It attempts to solve a couple of problems: * Support multiple languages * Recursively extend support to languages embedded within other languages * Output a uniform format for all supported languages This is a personal project so any feedback would be helpful. Something interesting I found after I built it is that this parser is not as fast to write output as many other JavaScript parsers, but its output is much faster to read from due to the…

    Hi HN! While working on a project that involves frequently parsing a lot of feeds, I needed a fast JavaScript-based parser to extract specific fields from feed namespaces. Existing Node packages were either too slow or merged all feed formats, losing namespace information. So I decided to write it myself and created this NPM package with a simple API. Feedsmith supports all feed formats and many popular namespaces, including: Podcast, Media, iTunes, Dublin Core, and more. It can also parse and generate OPML files. I am currently adding support for more namespaces and feed generation for RSS,…

    Howdy HN, as part of my ongoing programming language experiments I've ended up creating my own C++20 lexing and parsing library of sorts. Matcheroni is an alternative to parser generators and regular expressions that uses trees of C++ templates to implement highly customizable lexers and parsers that have minimal impact on build times or binary sizes, while still remaining comparable in performance to Boost regular expressions. The repo includes two example projects - a simple regex parser in ~300 heavily documented lines of code, and a much larger but not quite finished C99 lexer and…
