HTML-focused thin JavaScript framework from Postlight folks. https://postlight.github.io/trimmings/ (2019-08-29) Postlight Back To Html Introducing Trimmings

What happens to your web development process when you can focus on designing views and stop thinking about how to stitch them together?

This project follows in the footsteps of libraries like Turbolinks and Stimulus.

Trimmings’s API was inspired by Stimulus and the two libraries work happily together

Getting Started – Trimmings

Each thing has one URL

The web is a web because of the many links between its many pages. A link only really works when it can point somewhere, and that means that all your things need their own URLs.

Each URL has one thing

the sooner you can identify your network of things, the better-equipped you’ll be to start putting those things on the web. As you might have guessed, each of your things should have a URL

Modeling your data

be careful not to repeat yourself too much.

HTML is not just the tags that hold your content. HTML describes your data and imposes hierarchy

Take all of the thoughts you’d put into a JSON API, with its many objects and attributes and relationships—all your things—and replace the JSON with HTML

A Trimmings website prioritizes HTML above everything else (except the URL).
