Show HN: Radi.js is a tiny (3kB minified and gzipped) JavaScript framework

&quot;It doesn’t use any kind of diffing algorithm nor virtual dom which makes it really fast.&quot;<p>Aren&#x27;t Virtual doms there to improve speed by reducing unecessary writes to the DOM?

Looks interesting, i&#x27;ll keep an eye on it. Author&#x27;s blogpost with more details (and a benchmark): <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;medium.com&#x2F;@marcisbee&#x2F;how-i-built-super-fast-js-framework-faster-than-react-ea99f0d03150" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;medium.com&#x2F;@marcisbee&#x2F;how-i-built-super-fast-js-fram...</a>

I always thought this! No matter how fast the Virtual DOM and diffing is, at it&#x27;s core you are doing 2 writes. If you could just directly manipulate the DOM, that would always be faster. Really cool that someone put it into practice. I&#x27;ll try it out when I have some time.
