What is Mithril.js?

Mithril.js is a modern framework tailored for client-side JavaScript, aimed specifically at the development of Single Page Applications (SPAs). Its lightweight architecture, weighing in at under 10kb when gzipped, ensures swift performance while providing essential features such as built-in routing and XHR capabilities. Prominent organizations like Vimeo and Nike, as well as open-source initiatives such as Lichess, have embraced Mithril.js for their projects. Developers looking to compare Mithril.js with other frameworks will find a dedicated comparison page that provides valuable insights. A simple way to start experimenting with Mithril.js is to load it through a CDN and engage with a concise tutorial that covers most of the API functions, including routing and XHR. This tutorial is designed to be completed in about ten minutes, making it accessible for developers of all levels. With Mithril.js, you can effortlessly change a button's label upon clicking, and thanks to the m.mount function, there is no need for manual calls to m.render; Mithril.js takes care of updating the count variable in the HTML automatically. This fluid integration not only simplifies development but also significantly enhances the overall developer experience, positioning Mithril.js as an attractive option for building SPAs. Additionally, the framework's community support and documentation provide further resources for developers aiming to maximize their use of Mithril.js.

    The easiest SPA framework

    Date: Jul 23 2023
    Summary

    When I start a new project with Mithril I always feel a slight thrill because it is so nice to work with. With for example Angular I always have the feeling of 'I hope nothing goes wrong because it is so hard to fix'.
    Even for quite large projects Mithril is one of the easiest frameworks to work with.
    Flexible, easy, fast, reliable.

    Positive

    Mithril.js does not prevent you from doing things your way:
    - You can write JavaScript, TypeScript, JSX etc.
    - You can use a built tool, or point at a CDN and add your code directly on a web page.
    - You can write logic in your views or in separate controllers, or anywhere else you prefer.
    - You can write components as functions, classes, or inline code with the same ease.
    - You can use data services or a central store; and so on.
    - It really takes only 10 minutes to learn all the features you need for most apps. The expert features may take you an extra hour.

    Negative

    If you rely much on dependency injection (like Angular does) you have to either write it yourself, or include a package that handles it for you. But it is quite easy to do yourself.
