      The plan was for it to be just CSS, but as advanced as CSS is today, some things still aren’t possible with it alone. Javascript had to come into play, so no, this isn’t CSS-only.

      But if your intention was to belittle CSS, how rude. I dare you to center a <div></div>

        Oh no, I dare not belittle CSS. I haven’t even done any real website development yet. It was all just Rust and Python backends.

              That’s cool. Have you explored Leptos’s features? I totally get why you went for a RS framework over Py’s, even though Py’s might be more stable for now. But is your project focused solely on the web, or do you plan for it to be cross-platform with support for mobile and desktop OS as well? I’d love to know why you chose Leptos over Dioxus?

              (This is not suggestive question, I’m just really interested to know why you made that choice)

                Dioxus is indeed nice, however it feels too “bloated”. The WASM files are bigger than what Leptos produces and Dioxus is not just focused on web development but also desktop and mobile apps. I don’t need that. Leptos is good enough. I do plan on releasing a mobile app if this project gets significant interest, I’d probably do that in Kotlin so that the app is native and not web rendered.
