Island Architecture without the Framework

[nestarz]

I've made this library Islet (https://github.com/nestarz/islet) much smaller in scope and less opinionated by design but inspired by Fresh. Here's why:

Flexibility:

Islet is intentionally minimalist. It only provides a thin wrapper around the Island Architecture, which means you have the freedom to build your application in any way you like. It doesn't force you to follow a specific framework pattern or architecture. You get the flexibility to use it in any part of your application where you think Islet would be a good fit. This can be great for developers who don’t want to be tied to a particular framework or want more freedom in structuring their applications.

Interoperability:

Islet is not tied to a specific UI library like React or Preact. It’s designed to work seamlessly with any UI library that supports JSX syntax, such as React, Preact, or even vanilla JavaScript. This makes Islet a great choice if you are working in a diverse technology environment or if you want to keep your options open for future changes.

Simplicity:

Islet provides just the core features for using Island Architecture. This means it's not bloated with features you may not need. This makes the library lightweight and straightforward to understand, which is great for maintainability and ease of learning.

Performance:

Islet is lightweight and is optimized for performance. Because of its minimalist nature, it has a smaller impact on your application’s runtime performance compared to bigger, more feature-heavy frameworks.

Remember, Islet won't make major architecture decisions for you. So, it's best suited for developers who prefer to have control over their project architecture, and can appreciate the flexibility, interoperability, and simplicity it offers.

I quite like the idea of the island() function. Is that something that you'd be open to PR'ing to Fresh?
