Hi Q'inti, this is an amazing project and so creative! I love how everything complicated about web dev is simplified into a single syntax. It makes me realize how much effort is wasted on connecting the pieces together and how much debugging time could be saved if there was just a single language for writing web apps.

I'm working on something similar (Remake, check my profile), but taking a different approach of using HTML as the foundational language — with the ability to add additional functionality with raw JS. I'd be very interested in talking with you about the future of web dev and web frameworks in general if you want to connect!

Great work and good luck on your project either way!

Sorry it took me so long reading the documentation. I believe our projects are different. Mine is to treat all elements on the page as an object. The goal was not to write in css-like syntax. The goal of your project is an html templating engine.
Your project is greqt and can find its usage, but I don't like how little control it gives to the developer. For example dev don't have to implement back-end. From one side it is cool and fatens the development, from the other side it is not good as developer don't have full control over the backend and can't modify it's architecture.
