The native API is much more verbose and less composable. It was a real lost opportunity.

const $ = document.querySelector.bind(document) const $$ = document.querySelectorAll.bind(document)

Oh, I wish it was that simple.

no such right exists; that would be like the right to rob with impunity of course clever demagogues and rhetoricians can write such things into legislation, just as they can write legislation that claims you have no right to speak freely, but that just makes the legislation incorrect, like the famous legislation declaring pi to be exactly 3

It's so odd to live long enough and see the steady pipeline of "look at this much simpler way of doing web apps, just write HTML, not like the previous complex way" projects, which then turn into the previous complex way as the eyes turn towards the next "simple way of doing web apps, just write HTML...". Angular and React started this way on the frontend, while ASP and PHP started this way on the backend (of course…

Don't forget Polymer, whose main marketing was that it's the tech behind... McD's menu screens. It turned into lit html, I have no idea what the state of that is now, haven't heard from it for a while now.

WebComponents are still very much alive. :) And LitHtml is a very nice wrapper around them.

Angular 1, I don't know about Angular 2 had syntax like ng-repeat {{action.text}}

A syntax-based comparison feels a bit... superficial. One is an MVC based SPA framework. The other is best described (in my mind) as syntactic sugar over AJAX calls that replace inner HTMLs of selected targets.

Yeah, honestly (ignoring syntax) it looks A LOT like the original ROR ajax implementation. Having the server render a partial and swaping out the inner html to do a partial page update.

If you think htmx is cool, check out _hyperscript https://hyperscript.org/. Made by the same people, available with htmx I believe.

After seeing _hyperscript, it looks like they may have invented that first, and a lot of people's heads exploded, so they decided to try to make a "gateway drug" to sneakily introduce _hyperscript, and came up with htmx.

Feel free to Geoblock the entire market if you disagree. Many small news sites in the states do this.

No - from my perspective - it's important and for understanding maintainability. The syntax helps understand the mechanism of using HTML directives that are picked up by clientside javascript at pageload or AJAX HTML partial replacement, which is what GP was getting at with its comparison to Angular 1. Angular 1 picks up directives the same way (and Knockout).

In react you don't use the mechanism of directives, you use JSX or React.createElement in standard Javascript statements or expressions.

I think it's important because it decides your templating and composition, which is what React solves with its Components.

I played with pjax which is similar.

EDIT: For example, you might not want ng-click in your HTML if you think that is wrong for example, as it's like DHTML and onclick="" (I don't have a perspective on this at this time)

The twists and turns my career has taken had me pretty much skip the whole front-end JavaScript framework wars so it's nice to see "plain old HTML" make an enhanced comeback.

The site and it's examples do not work with JavaScript disabled.

This is a regression on graceful degradation.
