One of many in the htmx/uncle bob twitter feud:

Answer: Yes. But its different, because htmx is not a framework

Datastar signals let you do front end stuff like alpine & hyperscript

Is Laz doing too many things at once?

This might be the fastest, easiest way possible to make your dashboard live!
Basically just do polling with an hx-get, hx-select, and an hx-trigger

• Any Back-end. How html is generated doesn’t matter
• HATEOAS - No virtual DOM
• No build step, No Node or npm
• Don’t care about package size - as long as no dependency chain
• Load things as you need them (page and assets)
• Nothing is faster or more efficient than html

yes my first one was a technical debacle, and that's ok

Universal Studios in Orlando is a master class in efficiency.

Mayples on Twitter: https://x.com/mayples_co

In this episode I talk to Brock Benson, creator of Mayples, a business valuation SaaS. Last year, Brock made the decision to rewrite his large-scale, Live VueJS production app into an htmx app. During this rebuild, Brock went on a journey into the internals of htmx, built his own extensions, embraced _hyperscript, and pushed against the limits of htmx.

Does it scale? What were the pain points? What tricks did he come up? How does it compare with his earlier Vue version of the same app? 

I hope you enjoy this in-depth conversation with premiere htmx application developer Brock Benson.

Fixi: https://github.com/bigskysoftware/fixi

Fixi is a new hyper-minimalist javascript library. At less than 4kb, it gives much of the power of similar hypermedia libraries like htmx, with a new stream-lined approach. 

Use attributes like fx-action, fx-method, fx-trigger, and fx-swap to perform ajax requests to work with html from your server.

In this episode Lazarus talks to its creator, Jason Cross.
