I got nerd sniped. After being so annoyed with migrating to svelte 5 I started wondering how hard it would be to make a reactive framework *without* all the magic. Not all that hard as it turns out.

So I built nug, a very small reactive dom system. It doesn't use virtual DOM, and it doesn't use proxies. Instead, it just uses svelte stores, and some completely untested techniques I made up for splitting up large lists and render trees.
