I know this isn’t core to your project (which looks very creative and interesting), and I don’t have a strong opinion on this, but I want to throw it out there to get some thoughts:

Something I don’t like about “no build system, just use this one CDN script” is that:

1. I now depend on two servers for my application.

2. It represents a worst case: you must ship and download the entire library even if I could tree shake most of it at build time.



You can download the script and host it yourself, or serve it locally. I just put it on CloudFlare so it is easy if you don't want to host it yourself.

Totally understand the Tree Shaking problem, but the intent is not to use this for high performance consumer facing sites. More for just getting internal tools / prototypes written quickly without overhead / scaffolding.
