🌐 Unlock Development with Vanilla: The Non-Framework Powerhouse 🌐

Vanilla is here to reshape how you approach web development, delivering everything you need to build powerful, adaptable applications without the burdens of a traditional framework.

Here’s why Vanilla is a game-changer:
1. A Toolkit of Decorators: Start strong with built-in decorators
that offer you a versatile toolkit right out of the box, so you
can set up your app and streamline common patterns in seconds.
2. Abstract Classes for Structured Code: Vanilla simplifies the
structure with classes that differentiate between data-oriented
and text-oriented modules and components. This means faster,
stronger typing, and clearer designations for handling data-heavy
versus text-based elements.
3. Integrated State & Event Bus: With a unified state and event bus
service generated at app, page, and module levels, data flow and
event management are seamless and structured automatically,
reducing setup time and increasing reliability.
4. Efficient App Configuration: An intuitive app config file brings
ease to managing navigation, meta data, and Open Graph settings.
Plus, future expansion is underway, making it a sustainable choice
for your evolving projects.
5. Automated Sitemap Generation: A built-in script generates a
sitemap.xml directly in your distribution folder, helping you
maintain SEO best practices with minimal effort.
6. Extensive Form Module: Vanilla’s form support is comprehensive,
covering everything from inputs and selects to checkboxes and
radios. With a file uploader in the works, form creation is more
dynamic and interactive than ever.
7. Ready-to-Use Components & Modules: With Vanilla, you have a
growing library of components at your disposal: dialogs, forms,
tables, navbars, footers, headers, heroes, and more. It’s built to
grow with you.

With Vanilla, you’re not just choosing a toolkitβ€”you’re investing in a development philosophy that puts simplicity, flexibility, and efficiency at the core. Skip the refactoring, and build with confidence in a structure that’s designed to last.

Not a framework, but a frame to work with.
