I made a similar library [1] using data-* attributes. It also supports nesting, looping and conditions. For event handling, I use function in object (a.k.a. method) while you support writing them inline.

Your way to support inline logic in the text and style is interesting.

Very cool, it seems we almost came up with the same approach of components/templates. In your framework, it is referenced with a data-template attribute. In Reken, I use a data-component attribute.

One of the design goals for Reken was to not have to context-switch while coding, to not lose my train of thought (Guess my short-term memory is limited). Hence try to add everything inline in the HTML file. Also I'm working on a tailwind-like css inlining framework (compatible with Reken). Together these give me dynamic DOM and styling inline.

Wish you'll keep up and see more adoption over time :)
