alibaba/rax

Rax is a progressive framework for building universal applications.

---

💌 Write Once, Run Anywhere: write one codebase, run with Web, Weex, Node.js, Alibaba MiniApp, and WeChat MiniProgram. Rax can be used with additional containers that implement it's driver specification.

⏱ Fast: better performance and a tiny size(📦~6KB) when compared to React using the same API.

📤 Easy: quick start with zero configuration, all features like Progressive Web App (PWA), Server-Side Rendering (SSR), and Function as a service (FaaS) can be used out of the box.
