Imba is a full-stack programming language that compiles to JavaScript and ships with a built-in declarative DOM framework for building web applications. It offers a friendly syntax with first-class support for frontend UI development and server-side code in one language.

Use cases

• build web apps with a friendlier syntax than javascript
• write full-stack applications in one language
• declarative dom rendering without a separate framework
• compile a custom language to javascript
• build fast frontend uis

When to choose

• you want an integrated language plus ui framework for web development
• you value concise declarative dom syntax and performance
• you are open to a non-mainstream language with a small community

When to avoid

• your team requires a mainstream ecosystem with broad tooling and hiring pool
• you need native mobile or non-javascript targets
• you prefer standard javascript or typescript tooling
