Stario
The person behind Stario
Hey, I’m Adam.
Stario is my solo project. I am a mostly Python backend engineer who wanted a pleasant way to build complete web applications without losing sight of HTTP, HTML, and the server.
I went through frontend-heavy stacks, HTMX, and finally Datastar. Along the way I learned more about the browser and server boundary than I expected. Stario is where those lessons now live.
I build it in public so you can inspect the code, question a decision, use one small part, or reach out and talk about the whole thing.
What I care about
Readable work.
A small framework should teach durable ideas instead of framework trivia.
A repository should make sense to the person who owns it and to an AI agent helping with it.
A weekend application and a production application should not need two unrelated shapes.
A tool should say where its responsibility ends.
Come say hello
