Lit vs Semantic UI: What are the differences?

Developers describe Lit as "441 byte responsive 🔥 CSS framework". A tiny CSS framework that preserves everything Skeleton, Milligram, and other micro frameworks have to offer. On the other hand, Semantic UI is detailed as "A UI Component library implemented using a set of specifications designed around natural language". Semantic empowers designers and developers by creating a shared vocabulary for UI.

Lit and Semantic UI can be categorized as "Front-End Frameworks" tools.

Lit and Semantic UI are both open source tools. It seems that Semantic UI with 45.9K GitHub stars and 4.84K forks on GitHub has more adoption than Lit with 1.14K GitHub stars and 64 GitHub forks.

      Node.js
      Node.js uses an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model that makes it lightweight and efficient, perfect for data-intensive real-time applications that run across distributed devices.
      HTML5
      HTML5 is a core technology markup language of the Internet used for structuring and presenting content for the World Wide Web. As of October 2014 this is the final and complete fifth revision of the HTML standard of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). The previous version, HTML 4, was standardised in 1997.
