cell vs Re-base: What are the differences?

Developers describe cell as "A self-driving web app framework". cell is a self-constructing web app framework powered by a self-driving DOM. Learning cell is mostly about understanding how cell works, and not about how to use and memorize some API methods, because there is no API. On the other hand, Re-base is detailed as "A Relay inspired library for building React.js + Firebase applications". React.js makes managing state easy to reason about. Firebase makes persisting your data easy to implement. re-base, inspired by Relay, combines the benefits of React and Firebase by allowing each component to specify its own data dependency. Forget about your data persistence and focus on what really matters, your application's state.

cell and Re-base belong to "Javascript UI Libraries" category of the tech stack.

Some of the features offered by cell are:

• Self contained - each element is its own universe (context) with its own variables and functions
• Self driving - each element communicates with outside world via stateless function calls. This means each cell can survive on its own and plug into anything with zero overhead/footprint.
• No API - cell is all about how you structure your logic and not about learning how to use some proprietary API.

On the other hand, Re-base provides the following key features:

• syncState: Two way data binding between any property on your component's state and any endpoint in Firebase. Use the same API you're used to to update your component's state (setState), and Firebase will also update.
• bindToState: One way data binding. Whenever your Firebase endpoint changes, the property on your state will update as well.
• listenTo: Whenever your Firebase endpoint changes, it will invoke a callback passing it the new data from Firebase.

cell and Re-base are both open source tools. It seems that Re-base with 2.13K GitHub stars and 162 forks on GitHub has more adoption than cell with 1.55K GitHub stars and 103 GitHub forks.
