Hyperapp

The tiny framework for building hypertext applications.

  • Do more with less—We have minimized the concepts you need to learn to get stuff done. Views, actions, effects, and subscriptions are all pretty easy to get to grips with and work together seamlessly.
  • Write what, not how—With a declarative API that's easy to read and fun to write, Hyperapp is the best way to build purely functional, feature-rich, browser-based apps using idiomatic JavaScript.
  • Smaller than a favicon—1 kB, give or take. Hyperapp is an ultra-lightweight Virtual DOM, highly-optimized diff algorithm, and state management library obsessed with minimalism.

Here's the first example to get you started. Try it here—no build step required!

<script type="module">
  import { h, text, app } from "https://unpkg.com/hyperapp"

  const AddTodo = (state) => ({
    ...state,
    value: "",
    todos: state.todos.concat(state.value),
  })

  const NewValue = (state, event) => ({
    ...state,
    value: event.target.value,
  })

  app({
    init: { todos: [], value: "" },
    view: ({ todos, value }) =>
      h("main", {}, [
        h("h1", {}, text("To do list")),
        h("input", { type: "text", oninput: NewValue, value }),
        h("ul", {},
          todos.map((todo) => h("li", {}, text(todo)))
        ),
        h("button", { onclick: AddTodo }, text("New!")),
      ]),
    node: document.getElementById("app"),
  })
</script>

<main id="app"></main>

The app starts by setting the initial state and rendering the view on the page. User input flows into actions, whose function is to update the state, causing Hyperapp to re-render the view.

When describing how a page looks in Hyperapp, we don't write markup. Instead, we use h() and text() to create a lightweight representation of the DOM (or virtual DOM for short), and Hyperapp takes care of updating the real DOM efficiently.

Installation

npm install hyperapp
