Aurelia
Aurelia 2 is a front-end JavaScript framework for building browser, mobile and desktop applications.
Aurelia builds applications from components, each a class paired with an HTML template. It targets browser, mobile and desktop applications. New apps are scaffolded with npx makes aurelia, and the framework can also run from a plain HTML page without a build step. The documentation covers the framework.
Worth knowing
The README still describes Aurelia 2 as in beta and says a few more breaking changes to the public API are expected. A migration guide covers moving Aurelia 1 applications to Aurelia 2.
