It’s a JavaScript library for building reactive user interfaces in a way that doesn’t force you into a particular framework’s way of thinking. It takes a radically different approach to DOM manipulation - one that saves both you and the browser unnecessary work.

Features include…

  • Data-binding, with a beautiful declarative syntax.
  • Event handling that doesn’t make you tear your hair out.
  • Flexible and performant animations and transitions.
  • And much more!

To get a feel for how it will make your life as a web developer easier, head over to the documentation at ractive.js.org or get a quick hands-on with interactive tutorials.
