| Agreed. The old angular might be the peak of JS frameworks.

| Of course, we're the kind of company that think the less code and

| Which is pretty much every company, I assume.
|
| Please I'd very much appreciate diverse opinions on that topic.

| So Logto is an open source project you host yourself?

| Logto is now in public beta. We're working hard on more
| improvements, SDKs, and connectors. Feel free to drop your
| comments or needs.
|
| Hope the official release of Logto will meet you soon.
