Marko Reviews and Details

Is Marko good?

Social recommendations and mentions

• auto-animate now speaks marko

  If you haven't met Marko: it's an HTML-based language for building reactive UIs, born at eBay (it powers eBay.com) and now under the OpenJS Foundation. Nearly any valid HTML is valid Marko; you add reactivity with tags instead of a component API:. - Source: dev.to / 5 days ago

• JavaScript Awesome Package

  Marko.js - Bringing back progressive HTML rendering to the masses. - Source: dev.to / 6 months ago

• Mako: An fast, production-grade web bundler based on Rust by Ant Group

  Damn for a moment I thought this was about Marko (the frontend framework by Ebay). https://markojs.com/ They've been teasing v6 for years now. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• The Best UI Libraries for Cross-Platform Apps with Tauri

  SolidJS and Tauri form another potent combination for creating performant, lightweight, and secure experiences. SolidJS is a reactive UI library that is similar to Svelte in the way it compiles away reactivity and updates the DOM directly, but it also incorporates a fine-grained reactivity system reminiscent of libraries like Marko, Knockout, and MobX. - Source: dev.to / almost 3 years ago

• The Qase for Qwik: Love At First TTI

  Marko is a huge leap in the right direction. It has streaming, partial hydration, a compiler that optimizes your output, and a small runtime. I’ve also heard through the grapevine that Marko V6 also adds resumability to the framework as well. - Source: dev.to / over 3 years ago

• Movies app in 7 frameworks - which is fastest and why?

  Nevertheless, the future of JS frameworks is exciting. As we’ve seen from the data, Astro is doing some things right alongside Qwik. However, more noteworthy frameworks such as Marko and Solid are also paving the path forward with some similar traits and better performance benchmarks. We’ve come back full circle in web development - from PHP/Rails to SPAs and now back to SSR. Maybe we just need to break the cycle. - Source: dev.to / over 3 years ago

• Client-side Routing without the JavaScript

  And that is a similar feeling to the exploration we've been doing recently. Inspired equal parts from React Server Components and Island solutions like Marko and Astro, Solid has made it's first steps into Partial Hydration. - Source: dev.to / over 3 years ago

• The Cost of Consistency in UI Frameworks

  I first posted this a year and a half ago but it's been haunting me ever since. I keep revisiting it. In my dreams, and my day job. When working on Marko 6, we couldn't make a decision and decided to throw an error if one tried to read a value already updated in that cycle until we could make up our minds. - Source: dev.to / about 4 years ago

• Syntax highlighting library support for modern frontend frameworks

  There is no support for newer frameworks like Marko, which have their own file extension (format). - Source: dev.to / about 4 years ago

• Ask HN: Which front-end framework would you use to build a web app today?

  Marko[1] immediately comes to mind. It’s developed by, and powers most of, eBay. High performance, “isomorphic” (same code runs server-/client-side), small client bundle with automatic “partial hydration” (compiler uses static analysis to only send JS for interactive parts of the view). Another good option might be Astro[2] which has a lot of similar goals to Marko, but lets you “bring your own framework” for the... - Source: Hacker News / about 4 years ago

• Marko: A return to the good ol' days of web development

  Let’s get this out of the way first — I understand the fatigue that comes with hearing about the newest framework of the week, but Marko isn’t a new framework. Rather it’s an older, and somewhat lesser known library originally created at eBay that focused on the whole server rendering concept probably long before that was a twinkle in the eyes of some of your current faves. (As a JS dev I'm obligated to say that... - Source: dev.to / about 4 years ago

• Does Google use Angular for all of its projects? Especially Youtube?

  I don't know if they still use it but when Ebay modernized their UI they created a Vue-inspired framework called Marko built around server-side string concatenation. I tried it once and it's pretty damn lean, it just never broke through to mainstream. Source: over 4 years ago

• The weirdly obscure art of Streamed HTML

  Marko, some library with an ungoogleable name and a rainbow logo… oh, and JSX-like syntax? And a client-side virtual DOM that fit in my budget? And eBay has battle-tested it for its ecommerce websites? And it only uses client-side JS for stateful components? You don’t say. - Source: dev.to / over 4 years ago

• Is there a famous Multi Page App Framework based on React?

  Thanks for helping, but these are all single page application frameworks. I'm looking for something like Marko.js from ebay. So something that is truly doing MPA. Source: over 4 years ago

• Building for the (next) Web

  Partial hydration has been around for longer than you might think. Marko is a tool built by eBay which had the concept of partially hydrating the page as early as 2014. - Source: dev.to / over 4 years ago

• [AskJS] Looking for "forgotten" framework/MVC

  The community was big, the website looked like markojs.com and they didn't say they were an MVC or so. It was backed by lots of large companies (they showed). Source: over 4 years ago

• Solidjs – JavaScript UI Library

  When I go to https://markojs.com in Safari (14.1.2), the CPU load on my MacBook Air goes up above 100%. If I use the Brave browser, the CPU load is closer to 25%. Still too much. - Source: Hacker News / over 4 years ago

• Solidjs – JavaScript UI Library

  Heck of a library, and its creator, Ryan Carniato, is a very smart engineer who works on both Marko[0] and solidjs. He's really patient and answers my random questions on Twitter pretty reliably, I have to say I appreciate it! I have to say the performance that solid eeks out of the DOM is really next level. I think it could use a small augment in the docs about migrating from React to SolidJS, but all around the... - Source: Hacker News / over 4 years ago

• The Quest for ReactiveScript

  There is another approach that I first came across talking with the Marko team almost 2 years ago. Marko is an interesting language because it heavily values markup syntax, and the maintainers had basically resolved that they wanted to bring their reactivity into their tags. - Source: dev.to / over 4 years ago

• Understanding Transitional JavaScript Apps

  Now as some of you know this has been an area of focus for me the last couple years both with Marko and even to some degree with Solid. In fact it's kind of been on everyone's mind:. - Source: dev.to / over 4 years ago

• Hydrogen: Shopify's React-based framework for building custom storefronts

  While I personally prefer JSX-based tools, I’d be remiss not to mention Marko[1], a component framework developed by eBay. It has (and has had for years) everything mentioned above the fold (s/React Server Components/automatic partial hydration/) other than, of course, any built in Shopify functionality. 1: https://markojs.com/. - Source: Hacker News / over 4 years ago
