Pill vs alternatives #4

Nice library! 👍

There are a quite a few pjax (pushState + AJAX) and spf (Structured Page Fragments) libraries, so I was wondering what the main differences were between Pill and its alternatives (https://github.com/topics/pjax).

rumkin commented 5 years ago

The main benefit of Pill is its' size. I've compared it with Pjax which is 6.9 KiB and Turbolinks which is 9.3 KiB. Pjax and Turbolinks were suggested by the readers in comments to announcement post on Reddit.

Thanks!

@mustafa0x I'd also note that the learning curve for this library is basically non-existent. Could use some better documentation. But otherwise it's great!
