hastscript provides a concise and powerful syntax for creating HTML, SVG, and other DOM structures in JavaScript. It drastically reduces boilerplate compared to traditional DOM manipulation or JSX. It enables writing templates in a format that closely resembles HTML, while leveraging JavaScript's expressiveness for dynamic content and logic. Ideal for server-side rendering, generating markup in browser environments, or any situation where declarative DOM construction is beneficial. The package includes tools for rendering to strings or directly to DOM nodes.
Hastscript's release frequency is sporadic. Initial releases occurred in 2016, with periods of activity followed by months of inactivity. Releases continued through 2025, but with no consistent pattern. The latest release was version 9.0.1 in February 2025. Overall, the package doesn't have a regular release schedule.
Hastscript's npm package downloads show a general upward trend from March 2024 to August 2025, peaking in July 2025 at over 37 million. While downloads in September 2025 are at 2.7 million, the month is not yet complete.
