Isn't this how jQuery worked about 10 years ago?

to an extent, there was `jQuery.get` but it wasn't tightly integrated with HTML

the original version of htmx was intercooler.js:

https://intercoolerjs.org

released in 2013, and that version depended on jQuery

:) hyperscript came after htmx htmx is version 2 of intercoolerjs: https://intercoolerjs.org which had a proto-scripting language in it, the `ic-action` attribute: https://intercoolerjs.org/attributes/ic-action i dropped that attribute (along w/ the jQuery dependency) when I created htmx, but I felt there was some merit to the idea of a lightweight scripting language that abstracted away async behavior. Once htmx had…

Well, congrats on both projects. _hyperscript especially to me looks like an amazing technical accomplishment, to make something so similar to natural language. What sort of parser is it? LL? LR? Because I would need to use an _LLM_ to handle that. Lol.

just recursive descent w/ some hacks in there to make things "look right" :)

Stupid question, why doesn't htmx parse the response html and extract from that the relevant data out needs to fulfill the configuration? Feels a bit cumbersome to return the exact part of the response on server side, like the next page of the table, if it was requested with htmx, else return the full page. This way htmx would be even easier to implement in any front-end. Or maybe I am just crazy. Edit: or is it this…

Rails does this with Turbo Frames [1]. When clicking a link that is contained in a element, the frame is automatically replaced if the response contains a frame with the same ID.
