## What it is
Regularjs is a living, string-based template engine for building data-driven components with AngularJS-style dirty-check data binding. It provides directives, filters, events, animation, and composable components in a self-contained, easily integrated package.

## Use cases
- build data-driven ui components with two-way data binding
- create reusable mvvm components in legacy javascript projects
- integrate a self-contained component framework alongside other frameworks
- write string-based templates with conditional directives and list rendering
- compose components as custom elements in a web app

## When to choose
- you want an AngularJS-like mvvm experience in a lightweight, self-contained library
- your project relies on string-based templates with flexible templating logic
- you need to embed components into an existing app without a full framework migration

## When to avoid
- you are starting a new modern project where React, Vue, or Svelte ecosystems are a better fit
- you need a large ecosystem, tooling, and active community
- you require fine-grained reactivity instead of dirty-checking
