In plain words

This is a JavaScript library designed for building front-end applications, packaged at just 1 kilobyte in size. It targets web developers looking for a lightweight framework alternative.

It was first released in 2017 and is available on GitHub.

That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
