I think the general idea is good, but then again I built a whole startup from the same principles ~6 years ago.

It’s actually pretty impressive how similar Imba is to motion, our project. We forked Babel at the time, added a “view” expression that worked like a class but far simpler, and within view bodies you’d have full reactivity of variables. What’s nicer than Imba, I think, is that you get mostly vanilla JS syntax, nothing new to learn, and it’s 100% React so click handlers are plain JS expressions just like React.

We ended up not launching it, and we were re-writing it but never ended up launching the re-write or the original (though the original is on my GitHub somewhere I think).

Best of luck!
