Maybe pretty close to what it would look like if it were built for screen readers first— clear hierarchy, high information density, related concepts as close together as possible

Mental Models

Forms & Links - rerender everything, every click
jQuery - imperatively perform updates
React - rerender everything, every click?

@cmgriffing.bsky.social's Giffium.com rocks! Great way to show how much less you can write with Marko 😉
