Aurelia vs Espresso.js: What are the differences?

Developers describe Aurelia as "Next gen JS framework written with ES6 and ES7. Integrates with Web Components. No external dependencies except polyfills". Aurelia is a next generation JavaScript client framework that leverages simple conventions to empower your creativity. On the other hand, Espresso.js is detailed as "React Meets Backbone for a Minimal MVC". Espresso.js is a tiny MVC framework inspired by Backbone and React with a focus on simplicity and speed. We've aimed to bring the ideas of unidirectional data flow of Flux to a simple, Backbone-style library.

Aurelia and Espresso.js can be categorized as "Javascript MVC Frameworks" tools.

Some of the features offered by Aurelia are:

  • Two-Way Databinding
  • Routing & UI Composition
  • Extensible HTML

On the other hand, Espresso.js provides the following key features:

  • tiny, less than 500 lines and 3kb gzipped
  • zero dependencies
  • performance and memory focused

Aurelia and Espresso.js are both open source tools. Aurelia with 11.1K GitHub stars and 665 forks on GitHub appears to be more popular than Espresso.js with 523 GitHub stars and 20 GitHub forks.

    What are some alternatives to Aurelia and Espresso.js?
    Angular
    It is a TypeScript-based open-source web application framework. It is a development platform for building mobile and desktop web applications.
    React
    Lots of people use React as the V in MVC. Since React makes no assumptions about the rest of your technology stack, it's easy to try it out on a small feature in an existing project.
    AngularJS
    AngularJS lets you write client-side web applications as if you had a smarter browser. It lets you use good old HTML (or HAML, Jade and friends!) as your template language and lets you extend HTML’s syntax to express your application’s components clearly and succinctly. It automatically synchronizes data from your UI (view) with your JavaScript objects (model) through 2-way data binding.
    Svelte
    If you've ever built a JavaScript application, the chances are you've encountered – or at least heard of – frameworks like React, Angular, Vue and Ractive. Like Svelte, these tools all share a goal of making it easy to build slick interactive user interfaces. Rather than interpreting your application code at run time, your app is converted into ideal JavaScript at build time. That means you don't pay the performance cost of the framework's abstractions, or incur a penalty when your app first loads.
    Blazor
    Blazor is a .NET web framework that runs in any browser. You author Blazor apps using C#/Razor and HTML.
