Fresh 1.3 officially released, Deno full-stack web framework

Fresh 1.3 has been officially released.

Fresh is a new full-stack web framework for Deno. By default, web pages built with Fresh do not send JavaScript to the client. The framework has no build steps and can reduce deployment times by an order of magnitude.

At its core, Fresh is a combination of routing framework and templating engine that supports on-demand rendering of pages on the server. In addition to the just-in-time (JIT) rendering provided in the server, Fresh also provides an interface for seamlessly rendering certain components on the client for maximum interactivity.

The framework uses Preact and JSX (or TSX) for rendering and templating on the server and client. Client-side rendering is completely optional on a per-component level, so many applications never send any JavaScript to the client at all.
