Ask HN: Platform for 11 year old to create video games?
Scratch is fantastic.
There are also a number of similar (block-based) tools that let you create your own custom blocks and see the code behind them - e.g. Blockly (https://developers.google.com/blockly)

Ask HN: Modern Day Equivalent to HyperCard?
If your kid is already doing Scratch, Blockly is a really easy next step.
https://developers.google.com/blockly
Critically, Blockly can emit JavaScript and Python, plus it supports plugins for extended functionality. So the kid can stay inside the blockly universe for as long as they like, but easily peer under the hood and get into Python or JavaScript as soon as they like.

⚧︎ Super Smash Siblings Trans
Unless it would contradict canon, every stage is very bright, highly interactive, full of pre-placed items, and so huge that you can usually run from your NPC opponents and enjoy exploring the stage in peace while they catch up to you. All buildings have Linux computers with actual internet access that allow you to program and print out your own projectiles/books/flags/UNO reverse cards/shinigami eyes/soupcans/cis TERF tears/masks/custom-made programs which can then be inserted into a different computer, but all without tracking any of your browser history; closets that you can enter; bookshelves containing the books mentioned in Masterpieces that you can either read in-game or throw to make random sentences/verses/comics from the book appear; and bathrooms with working mirrors that you can enter but their exact content and whether they're gendered or not depends on the stage.

Creating a To-do app with HTMX and Django, part 8: inline edit, and using Iconify
As usual, there are a few possibilities here; one is to render both the with the title, and a form with for each row, and use plain Javascript (or AlpineJS) to toggle edit mode.

Supercharge your HTML with mizu.js!
That's why I grew fond of libraries such as Alpine.js and htmx, which require no setup and are easy to use. However, I felt these had some limitations. Since they were mostly designed for client-side usage, it wasn't really possible to use them in server-side rendering contexts (including static generation).
-
🔥I have launched a project and think it help you, maybe :)
In fact, it is really good as an alternative to modules like htmx and alpine.js, because it allows you to create dynamic interfaces with a minimum set of configurable parameters, as well as the size of the output files. This is achieved by working with the server, when we prepare the UI there, and we only transfer it to the client via API.

VidSnap: Effortless Screen Recording powered by Pinata

Personal Finance Management App with Django, HTMX, Alpine, Tailwind and Plaid
Alpine.js is another lightweight JavaScript framework used to add interactivity. It plays nicely with Django’s template structure and provides quick, declarative behavior for things like modals, dropdowns, or toggles. In combination with HTMX, Alpine can give you just enough JavaScript to enhance the UX without having to deal with something like React or Vue. For instance, you can use Alpine to manage state in the frontend, like opening and closing modals or handling client-side validation.

React on the server is not PHP
That’s a mostly solved problem. If you’re in the Laravel ecosystem:
https://livewire.laravel.com/
https://alpinejs.dev/
AlpineJS is for your menus and simple client-side interactivity. Livewire lets you render templates server-side while handling routing, interactivity, updates, morphing, everything you need all in one.
Combine the two, you’ll be counting the lines of JavaScript you right in the dozens, on one hand.

Augmenting the client with Alpine.js
This post is part of a series comparing different ways to implement asynchronous requests on the client, which is colloquially known as AJAX. I dedicated the previous post to Vue.js; I'll dedicate this one to Alpine.js - not to be confused with Alpine Linux.
-
A short history of AJAX and SSR
We must recognize the benefits that client-side rendering offers, but perhaps the pendulum has swung too far. Is it possible to have the best of both worlds? In some corners of the industry, cooler heads have prevailed, and the term SSR has been coined to describe a return to what we've been doing for ages—albeit with some modern enhancements. The idea is to leverage AJAX, JavaScript, and browser improvements without the unnecessary bloat. While many tools are available, I frequently hear about Vue. js and HTMX. A recent search also led me to Alpine.js. And I've long been a proponent of Vaadin.
