The What

It stands somewhere in-between a framework and a boilerplate. Everything you think prev is, is a part of the repo at all times.

Pros

  • No lockin
  • Easy to hack into the codebase and make mods or even change entire functionalities.

Cons

  • Updates are hard (I'm looking for ways to handle this)
  • becomes very documentation dependent instead of having a self-explanatory API

Since the cons are something that can be solved by adding prev to a package, I will also be doing that but to start with, it's a clonable template repo to work with.

The Why

It started as a demo to help fresh to move from their multi layer approach mentioned here https://deno.com/blog/intro-to-islands to being able to convert any file into an island using barelyhuman/preact-island-plugins. Considering fresh has moved quite ahead and the change might not be in the best of their interest.

So then, I just continued adding features into it one by one and now we have something tiny that I would say can be a minimal MPA/Islands framework.
