You'd do well to read https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html -- all that baseless assumption and disingenuous false accusation really isn't in any way civil or useful... but then when you're cheap enough to bring the Holocaust into a discussion about data protection legislation, you're really not in a position on ethics - or indeed anything else.

HTMX the framework that sends a server request to put a textfield into edit mode? Nah sorry, not convinced.
hi there, as many of you know, i am the creator of htmx and I'm happy to answer any questions about it htmx has seen a surge in popularity, triggered by a video by fireship dev ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-GSGH2RxJs ) and a series of videos by ThePrimeagen, a popular twitch streamer on it hacker news readers might be interested in the essays I have written on htmx & hypermedia in general here: https://htmx.org…
> htmx has seen a surge in popularity For those curious, here's some numbers for the last 6 weeks to put things into context: - 4147 new stars - 86 new contributors - New contributors account for most of the commits and issues created which is a very strong sign of growth. Even in very popular projects, it is usually existing contributors that contribute most of the code. https://devboard.gitsense.com/bigskysoftware/…
we've had a new person come on the project who is focused on auditing PRs and getting the good ones in front of me, which helps a lot w/ getting new contributors in

I love you. Thanks for making the web feel like the web again <3

I don't think that secular society posits some kind of natural inalienable objective moral law. I'm sure you know this but many, many people do not believe in objective morality

No major changes, it should be about 99% API compatible with htmx 1.x. Big things: - Websocket & SSE support will be completely pulled out to extensions (already available in 1.0) - We will drop IE support - We may include a "morph" swap strategy based on idiomorph ( https://github.com/bigskysoftware/idiomorph/ ) - We will change a few defaults around how HTML is parsed, taking advantage of the removal of IE support…
Will HTMX 2.0 have a smaller bundle size since you are removing things? I don't think HTMX is too big or anything but I have a love tiny libraries. And on that note do you think that a smaller striped down version of HTMX is feasible like petite-vue is for vue
yes, I think you could do a stripped down htmx that doesn't support a lot of the stuff htmx does, particularly life cycle events and more elaborate swapping mechanism
for example, most response headers could be just done as the HX-Trigger response header + some client side scripting
history support and form-value gathering is likewise a source of complexity and code that could be omitted or done less completely

> With JS you must use JS or TS and the steam factory that comes with it. With htmx you can use any language. Can you elaborate on what you mean by this? Front-end framework don't care what language back-end logic is written in. For example, I have a Vue/Vite site that calls back-end functions that I'm gradually migrating from one language to another, and no front-end changes have been required.
Much of your business logic can live in the backend, and it keeps your frontend really tiny. The idea is to generate HTML on the backend, instead of using a front-end framework to generate HTML on the client from an API call. You can also do the same in Node if you want to, I currently have a TS website that is mostly templated HTML in production (without htmx). Htmx would be perfect for that site.
Ah, so "with htmx you can use any language" is true because its users are no longer using a programming language per se for the front-end, but instead are defining logic with htmx's DSL?
Great news. I have had good success and a rewarding experience using htmx the past year. It has been so great in tandem with Clojure using hiccup for SSR. Once htmx clicks for you, you are almost left stunned by how simple and flexible it is. You can't believe that this isn't how HTML evolved to as a hypermedia. It becomes very obvious that this is how web development should have evolved. I hope someday that what htm…
What are technical differences between HTMX and early versions of Angular 1? It has the same idea of sprinkling some attributes over HTML to make it dynamic for easy cases. There were many frameworks that started like this (Angular 1, Vue, etc), and after getting some traction they grew into full-blown SPA frameworks, because there is a real need for more difficult cases. If I had to pick an “Angular-1-like” framewor…
as much as possible, htmx tries to take HTML to its logical conclusion (from my perspective) as a hypermedia, rather than imposing other ideas on top of it

Does this work with Web Assembly? Of course Web Assembly will die too since it can't do SEO.
In all seriousness though, what is the "core" reason to actually adopt this over the current approach?
