Ripple is a TypeScript UI framework for web (If React and Svelte had a baby)

Ripple is a TypeScript UI framework that takes the best parts of React, Solid and Svelte and combined them into one package. I wrote Ripple as a love letter for frontend web – and this is largely a project that I built in less than a week, so it's very raw.
