What is Mithril.js?

A modern client-side JavaScript framework for building Single Page Applications. It's small (8.93 KB gzipped), fast and provides routing and XHR utilities out of the box.

Mithril.js is used by companies like Vimeo and Nike, and open source platforms like Lichess 👍.

Mithril.js supports Firefox ESR, and the last two versions of Firefox, Edge, Safari, and Chrome. No polyfills required. 👌
