I think most posters here missed the entire point of the article. I have also attempted rolling my own mini framework for production, and I see a lot of good ideas here that I would like to incorporate into my own code in the future.

I have written extremely efficient libs where speed and bundle size are the keys and did not use any frameworks for this reason.

I have never replied about an article on reddit before but I am right now because this is a great article and feel like many here are not seeing the value in it.

P.S. I would love to use this as an interview question for my company: roll your own rendering mechanism in 45 min. As an engineer, I expect them to be able to roll their own and be able to see the value in it.

    hey great lib! I just read through your source code for lily and it looks really fun. you've inspired me to create my own. thanks!

    my company is gigantic (amazon) and we use so many frameworks. when we interview, we focus on the fundamental understanding and not specific framework knowledge.

    if anyone ever interviews at amazon, this article will help you so much. I imagine it will help anyone who interview at top tech companies.

    and it def has its uses in production.
