We still have yet to complete support for Razor partials and HTML helpers but efforts have focused on stability and performance, indeed we believe Simple.Web (in terms of requests per second) is becoming one of the fastest web frameworks available. It's also recognised with the continued popularity of client-side MV* frameworks that server-side view engine generation may no longer be the priority for many consumers, but fast and easy integration with a server-side API is - and thats surely Simple.Web's sweet spot!
