Many Javascript very good frameworks have been created before all hyped ones.
SomaJS is one of them.
I think it still one of the best framework to code clean and scalable applications in Javascript
I let you discover that gem here : Soma.js – Your Way Out of Chaotic JavaScript

The source is quite old, is it still actively maintained?
Hy Eckehard :-)
It's not actively maintained, but it has been done by very capable persons and the code is very legible and stable, you can look at the tests.
I really regret it has not been so much advertised, as I said it's a real gem.
You know they have this rule for aspiring film makers? "Show, don't tell".
Why not come up with a few examples of Soma's brilliance in a separate post?
Hy Vaviloff, the examples will give you a good idea of what the framework is capable.

Thanks, but I am not that interested in this "ancient" framework to actually read the linked article, which is humungous. And judging by your reluctance to quote, neither are you 😅 But that's okay, Next have won, so no need for other frameworks, I guess.
The concepts used in SomaJS are still valuable today :
All those concepts are clearly used in the samples, if you are familiar with them, glad for you,
and if SomaJS is not your thing, that's perfectly fine, stick, which what is the most useful and productive for you.
Be assured that there is absolutely nothing new in actual frameworks, neither signals and reactivity.
Bitwise, concerning the fact on showing code, I invite you to read my posts, I think I am not the last to publish :-)
Regards.
