My name is Tao Xin. I created VanJS (https://vanjs.org/, repo) in 2023, which is the smallest reactive UI framework in the world. I think VanJS is super cool! With only 0.9kB in .min.js.gz and 1.7kB in .min.js, VanJS offers a programming experience similar to (if not better than) React. If you're interested in VanJS, please consider starring the project. It takes just a few seconds but your support means the world to me and helps spread VanJS to a wider audience. Meanwhile, feel free to leave your comments in Discussions.

• VanJS stands for abbreviated Vanilla JavaScript. The design philosophy of VanJS is to stay as close to Vanilla JavaScript as possible. As explain in details here, VanJS provides a way to write abbreviated/sugared form of Vanilla JavaScript code.
• The "Why VanJS" section of https://vanjs.org home page is indeed 18% larger than the entire VanJS framework itself (2043 bytes vs 1729 bytes).
• Despite VanJS being a front end framework, I do backend engineering for a living.
• List of my favoriate programming languages (ranked by fondness, not by familiarity):
