My problem is that there isn't any really good tools to develop frontend. There are tons of great tools and frameworks for HTML, CSS, and JS but it's still JS which I think isn't the answer for this question. I think a new language which is built from the ground up to serve frontend development can be the solution. The imagined language and framework will have the following features: - Declarative syntax for UI building (instead of HTML) - Databinging - Easy animations - Redesigned styleing system (instead of CSS) - Statically typed - Object oriented and functional programming mix and match - Develop and test the full frontend without the need of the backend, with REST mocks - UI widget library on top of HTML - Resuable custom component creation - Instant preview (like in HTML, save and reload) - Transpiled to HTML, CSS - Debuggable (both code and component structure)
