ProType is an easy to use JavaScript framework that will help you manage

and encapsulate piece of code to build your website or your app. Everything in ProType is defined in classes.

It was inspired by other language such as Swift or Flutter, and other framework like React.

That WebGL background animation on your site is not optimized. It's detracting from the experience.

First and foremost, congratulations on your release! With that said... I'll be brutally honest here: Why would I want to use this framework compared to the endless number of established frameworks out there? You listed a few of the benefits such as more productive, why? and how? Not to be a downer but as a developer this just doesn't entice me want to test, let alone include, it out in my tech stack. You need to sell it better, especially with a new JS framework appearing every other day.

Your initiative is great. You should definitely push forward with this. The “framework” itself is just Backbone.js adapted to ES6. From my experience, MVC is only good because everyone knows about it. But working in large-scale MVC codebases is a pain. I would not structure any of my apps using MVC, today, unless they’re very small in size.

@oprearocks how do you structure your applications if not with MVC?

@oprearocks @shaunpreston Have you heard about React? or Vue?

First of all, props for ambition! 👍 However, in the site’s home page, you’ve said that the framework is Modern, Productive, Safe, Fast... You should explain why that’s the case. Especially when comparing with jQuery/Vue. What are you doing differently? How is that better? Also, how do you use the framework? In my opinion, the documentation of frameworks and packages is as important as the code. I wouldn’t choose your framework because I would have to dig in the code to see what it does and how it does it. If I want to build something fast, the last thing I would want is to read the source code of my framework.

@hristiyandodov Sorry for being late. You can find the docs on GitHub (in the wiki section)

Not bad for developing this at such a young age :) I was looking at your code and it doesn't look bad.. but you definitely need to clean things up a bit and also work on your documentation. It was kinda hard to figure out what to do or even how to get started. Also working on some examples would be awesome!

Well, it's great to see that a 15-year old guy tried to make an interesting thing. But I honestly don't really feel like there's any perks of using this framework. Even if you are not willing to use heavy-loaded frameworks like React, there are some other lightweight libraries these days. Or could make a simple structure for your own using jQ/Vue or custom Routers/VC model with rendering libraries. Still I would look forward to see next moves.
