Is Go the best language to build a web page with a collaborative text field?
I'm exploring web stacks to build a multiplayer text editor. Elixir's Delta has been recommended to me.
-
Would you use Phoenix LiveView to build a collaborative text field?
Definitely checkout Slab’s Operational Transform library Delta as well. I think conventional wisdom is that CRDTs can be really helpful when there is no single source of truth (i.e. a server), but OT can simplify things when there is.

Is there an equivalent to Yjs in Elixir's Phoenix?
For the particular goal of text collaboration, there are also operational transforms. There is a library maintained by the folks at Slab: https://slab.com/blog/announcing-delta-for-elixir/

Ask HN: What tech stack would you use to build a new web app today?
Yeah offline or complex client side state management is a good use case for Javascript. There are Hooks and Push Events with Liveview for real time integrations with Liveview in those scenarios. In my experience offline requirements are rare and often in mobile scenarios where a native or Flutter-like approach is a good option.
Complex client side state or collaborative features might use something like https://github.com/slab/delta-elixir or https://www.inkandswitch.com/local-first/ which is where I'd want JS.

Track content and changes with Delta in Elixir
Here's a little context on Delta (https://github.com/slab/delta-elixir) and the linked blog post:
Delta is a format to describe documents' contents and how it changes over time. This is a core piece of technology at Slab, that powers our real-time collaboration engine, thanks to the built-in support for Operational Transform (think multiple users working together in Google docs).
Though we've been using it internally for almost 4 years now, we're finally open-sourcing it to the wider Elixir community.
Would love your feedback!

🕸️ Web development trends we will see in 2024 👀
HTMX is another library that gained popularity due to its server-first approach to rendering data, although seeking a much simpler way of appealing to developers.

Reusable Input Datalist
When I work with HTMX I need isolated component that can be reusable a form. So I create a PHP Function that generate the Input Datalist.

HTMZ inspired form subission
I was inspired by htmz (which was in turn inspired by htmx) and how the author got pretty close to a basic htmx-like experience just using an iframe. I wanted to push it a little further so whipped this demo together. My submission demonstrates progressive enhancement for the form - with js enabled the request targets an iframe that is inserted into the dom, meaning the page doesn't actually navigate (similar to event.preventDefault()). The iframe receives the html response from the request and on load triggers a function to swap out it's contents into the main page.

Example Java Application with Embedded Jetty and a htmx Website
As described on htmx.org: "htmx gives you access to AJAX, CSS Transitions, WebSockets and Server Sent Events directly in HTML, using attributes, so you can build modern user interfaces with the simplicity and power of hypertext"

Show HN: Alpine Ajax – If Htmx and Alpine.js Had a Baby
Also, there’s some response header juggling you have to do when submitting forms that have a validation step before redirecting: https://github.com/bigskysoftware/htmx/issues/369
I’ve tried to iron out any footguns or server requirements I’ve bumped into while using HTMX & Hotwire in my projects.

🤓 My top 3 Go packages that I wish I'd known about earlier
✨ In recent months, I have been developing web projects using GOTTHA stack: Go + Templ + Tailwind CSS + htmx + Alpine.js. As soon as I'm ready to talk about all the subtleties and pitfalls, I'll post it on my social networks.

Go + Hypermedia - A Learning Journey (Part 1)
I've been digging into HTMX lately (using Python web frameworks) and find the concepts and approach to be interesting and promising. The idea of hypermedia driven systems over the current practice of JavaScript based frameworks (I never really got into React, played with Vue, and enjoy Svelte/SvelteKit) and the ability to chose your language/framework for the backend while primarily leveraging HTML/CSS on the frontend just seems refreshing.

Htmx become 0 clause BSD-licensed
Apparently it changed from 2-clause BSD: https://github.com/bigskysoftware/htmx/commit/e16f1865a494b6...
(The zero clause license drops the requirements for preserving the copyright notice when distributing)
