I am looking for a web development environment/language/framework that gets as close as possible to the speed, productivity, and uniformity as native development in for example iOS. I find that I have limited time to work on side projects, and I would be much faster (and enjoy it much more) if I didn’t have to slog through the mud that is modern front end web development. There must exist some stack with a relatively decent language, UI framework, and build system, but I haven’t been able to find it or put it together.<p>Recently I tried Vue/Nuxt, but it lacks good Typescript (or other good language) support and lacks a UI framework (they exist, but they are ugly and/or huge). I’ve tried some other stacks but they generate massive file size which is unacceptable especially if you wish to serve mobile users.<p>Thanks!
Check out Blazor. I have no experience with it and in fact I'm quiet skeptical, this being Microsoft and all, but it looks like Microsoft is really intent on improving it.<p>There's an 8 hour Youtube video [0] of a virtual conference showing off its capabilities published just 2 days ago, and looks like the documentation is improving [1].<p>[0] <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgneZz-4Foc" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgneZz-4Foc</a><p>[1] <a href="https://dotnet.microsoft.com/apps/aspnet/web-apps/blazor/" rel="nofollow">https://dotnet.microsoft.com/apps/aspnet/web-apps/blazor/</a>
