Any plans for modernizing the codebase/using a newer web framework?

Sorry if the title sounds condescending, I don't mean it that way, I'm aware this project has quite a few years under it's belt. Not only that but it's also pretty robust and seems to work really well.

I've been wanting to start a project myself recently - something a bit more frontend-y - and re-making the dgg chat ui seems like a nice place I could start.

The tools/frameworks I planned to go with are;

• Typescript.
• Svelte or React as the UI framework. (I have some years of React, but not Svelte, but I wanna learn Svelte).
• Vite for the DX, build tools, transpiler and bundler.
• Vitest (or Jest would be fine, Vitest can just integrate with Vite easier) for the Unit testing framework.
• Cypress for e2e testing.
• Obligatory eslint and prettier for code conventions and standardization.

If I were to get an MVP or some sort of early POC to show with this, would it be considered for use going forward?

We don't have any plans to rewrite chat-gui using a modern frontend framework at the moment. You're obviously free to pursue this as a personal project, though!
