I’m exploring Trongate MX for a personal project and trying to understand how it fits into today’s front‑end landscape. With the rise of reactive frameworks (Vue, React, Svelte), dedicated state‑management libraries, and build‑tool‑heavy workflows, MX’s lightweight, jQuery‑like approach feels refreshingly simple.
But I’m curious about practical experiences:
- **Use cases** – What kinds of projects have you used MX for successfully? SPAs, traditional multi‑page apps, or something else?
- **Integration with modern tooling** – Have you paired MX with Vite, ES modules, or TypeScript? Any tips or pitfalls?
- **State management** – MX provides helpers for DOM updates, but how do you handle more complex client‑side state (e.g., shopping carts, multi‑step forms) without reaching for a full‑blown state library?
- **Performance** – How does MX perform in larger applications with hundreds of interactive elements? Any bottlenecks you’ve encountered?
- **Future direction** – Where would you like to see MX evolve? More built‑in components, better TypeScript definitions, tighter integration with Trongate’s backend?
I’d love to hear from developers who have shipped real projects with MX. What worked, what didn’t, and what would you do differently next time?
