Total.js framework v4 (v0.0.99) is a Node.js web framework written in pure JavaScript, similar to PHP's Laravel or Python's Django. It supports web, desktop, service, and IoT applications. Known for its high performance and minimalistic design, it includes built-in support for MVC architecture, real-time communication, and a rich set of components. The framework is actively developed with frequent releases on npm. It is fully TypeScript-typed and ships with its own CLI tool. Compared to Express.js, it offers a more opinionated structure and built-in modules for common tasks.

Error: Cannot find module 'total4'
Package not installed or installed globally without proper NODE_PATH.
fix
Install locally: npm install total4 --save, then run node with correct path.
TypeError: F.on is not a function
F is not defined because the framework instance wasn't created.
fix
Ensure you have called require('total4') which creates the global F object.

fix
Replace 'import total4 from 'total4'' with 'const total4 = require('total4')'.
