The main reason for using a stack was reducing verbosity because for short scripts using variables felt unnecessary when the type-prefix of the command already communicates the var…

DOM bloat can certainly become a problem when adding lots of code in e.g. table rows. I added functions mainly to be able to move common code into a central place to minimize that …

I think the approach of HTMX is that UI state is primarily managed by delegating DOM updates to the server and then modifying the DOM with the response. With hyTags one can do a lo…

For most tags you can also put the event handlers as first children inside the element, but self-closing tags like don't support that. I'm now putting the event handlers always out…

Exactly, code is data ;)

It's only frontend logic. There is a small runtime that is implemented in Javascript interprets html tags. Backend logic needs to be implemented on the server.

Thanks dang!

The main reason for using tags was for me that they can be generated from a host language and stay readable, even for longer scripts. I'm using Swifts result builders for my projec…

I did a Show HN for the language "hyTags" yesterday, too. It's a language embedded in HTML, using tags as syntax. It quickly dropped of the new page: https://news.ycombinator.com/i…

This is hyTags, a programming language embedded in HTML for building interactive web UIs. It started as a way to write full-stack web apps in Swift without a separate frontend, but…

Or, phrased differently, if n has an upper limit, the algorithm is O(1).

I'm using Swift Result Builders as a statically typed language to generate HtmlScript code (which a similar approach as html, the programming language): https://htmlscript.org This…

So how does it work if a library owner changes something in his library—do they have to update all projects that depend on it and then push this as a single commit?

Not sure if "recent" is the correct attribute for DSLs in Ruby. https://www.infoq.com/news/2007/06/dsl-or-not

The Sapper version is cheating a little. It is preloading the pages on mouseOver events of the links.

One great application of this would be to hide the unsubscribe link if the email is forwarded.

I don't understand. Would't each of your 8 million followers get one push notification instead of you getting 8M when you post something?

About half a year ago. It turned 1500 lines of Dart into ~10000 lines of Javascript. That might not be that much to handle for a webview but it was quite hard to debug. I used it a…

I tried Dart when looking for a typed language that compiles to Javascript. It was nice but in the end I used haxe because it had a much smaller footprint. Dart seems to include it…

I don't think it's useful to extract every guard statement into a separate function. Consider importing a json file where each field could potentially contain invalid or missing da…

Interesting, the compiler seems to be implemented in C++.
