Thanks for the fast answer!

That's a tough path you took and I wish you'll reach your goals. There are currently many frameworks who want to get the mind share. Would you mind to share your mindset behind the decision to split and build a new framework? Is there something in Vue you oppose or new concepts you would like to introduce? Would be very interested to hear your thoughts, I'm always on the lookout.

No problem! I wanted to build a new framework mainly because my Vue app was becoming slow and I wanted something small. Moon is 7kb minified and gzipped, that makes it really fast to load on mobile.

If you take out the compiler (similar to Vue's runtime version), Moon is only 3kb minified and gzipped!

Check out the Medium Article[1] and the README for more information on why I made it.

Ah thanks, missed the "Another library?" part. I think it's a good idea to address this question because this is the first one someone has after reading the title (Vue, but faster & smaller). Maybe I'll use it for some side projects, would be interesting to see if it is still easy to develop with a subset of Vue's API.
