Nomini is an extremely small (~2kb) library for reactive HTML and partial page updates. It blends the best ideas from Alpine.js, htmx, and Datastar while staying tiny and easy to understand.

Nomini lets you:

• Add lightweight reactive state directly in your HTML
• Bind DOM properties and classes with automatic dependency tracking
• Listen to any event with inline handlers
• Make AJAX requests to replace any part of the page
• Keep everything declarative and local

If you want the power of Alpine + htmx with an order of magnitude less code, Nomini is the smallest tool that delivers both.

Why Nomini?

• It's tiny! (8x smaller than Datastar)
• Write plain JavaScript, no special DSLs to learn
• Enhanced onclick with modifiers and access to reactive variables
• Built-in AJAX helpers that grab all of the data from the current scope

What Nomini is not

Nomini is deliberately minimal. It does not try to be:

• A template language
• A performant virtual DOM
• A full-featured set of helpers for every use case
• A global state management system

Nomini stays small by keeping the mental model simple: Boring HTML + islands of reactivity + server-driven pages
