FreshML is a framework for rapid protoyping of progressive web apps. It is designed for the framework-fatigue who want to arrive in 2018. Installation-free, insanely fast lego set for simple paper design UIs. Fresh out of the box!

- State-of-the-art dependency management is painful. FreshML is completely installation free.
- Every framework introduces a new language. FreshML wants to be compliant with what developers are comfortable with.
- FreshML should be as concise and expressive as possible.
	- We want to hide as much complexity as possible
	- FreshML is opinionated - it is about build standardized prototypes - not about customization
	- No prefixes - but case senitivity
- Material Design is great to design complex UIs but there is no light-weight tool to ship powerful progressive web apps in under ten minutes. Except for FreshML.
