Yes, and if you continue long enough you end up with one of the many jQuery alternatives, like mine: https://umbrellajs.com/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

If you're learning React just to get a job, you're doing it wrong, since recruiters are always changing their requirements. They will add `proficient in Svelte` just to annoy you, (after having learning React) and now you're no longer relevant to them. That's why I say: stick to the baseline of HTML, CSS, & JS. Learn to write vanilla JS for common things, maybe learn UmbrellaJS[0] for syntactic sugar and... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

I still use jQuery but https://umbrellajs.com too. And native DOM API as well. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

I made a tiny alternative a while back called Umbrella JS: https://umbrellajs.com/ Seeing methods like addClass in "replace-jquery", I'm not fully satisfied. I could make Umbrella JS tiny (1/2 of the alternative listed elsewhere in the thread, Cash, and 10% the size of jQuery) because of heavy method reusal. For instance, in Umbrella JS addClass is just:

    u.prototype.addClass = function () {.

Templating engine: SSGs rely on templating engines to define the structure of web pages. These engines enable developers to create reusable templates and incorporate dynamic content. Popular templating engines include Liquid, Handlebars, Mustache, EJS, ERB, HAML, and Slim. - Source: dev.to / 8 months ago

I also enjoy simple templating engines. It makes it far easier to reason about a template and mentally step-through it. For existing art, there are: DustJS which is a "logic-less" template engine (just loops and simple if-statements): https://github.com/linkedin/dustjs Personally, I've re-implemented DustJS in rust but its still a very alpha project: https://code.fizz.buzz/talexander/duster. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

Other popular templating engines include Jade, EJS, and Handlebars. Jade is a high-performance templating engine that is used for server-side rendering. EJS is a lightweight templating engine that is used for client-side and server-side rendering. Handlebars is a templating language that is based on the Mustache template language. - Source: dev.to / 12 months ago

You don't have to even program the replacement part yourself, because there are many libraries made specifically for that. For this example, I'd recommend mustache. Source: about 1 year ago

This is one of the least-bad names because it implements a non-Boost standard and it's named after that. I've used mustache in Python so knew immediately it was a templating language. Source: over 1 year ago
