go-app VS templ

For the Frontent Wasm with go-app

Not a framework, but you might like https://go-app.dev if you want to build WEB UI (views) with Go, using declarative syntax.

Check this library - https://github.com/maxence-charriere/go-app

Wasm to the rescue - https://go-app.dev/, https://yew.rs/.

I enjoy it as much as Vue 1.0 before we had bundlers, transpilers, builders and what not.

Templ for the templating engine. Although Go already have a decent templating engine, I'm planning to use Templ because it's more powerful and flexible. I really like this library and I'm planning to use it in my future projects.

✨ 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.

Templ - HTML templating for Go

html/template - we will be using the standard HTML templating library built into Go. It is a great library and perfect for simple things like this, though if you have a more complicated project (I assume you do), I would look into using something like templ.

Cool project and if it works for you and you're happy, that's all what counts.

When I read the article, I was thinking that Go templates were used wrong. I was thinking there must be a way to define the template so you inject the content and don't need to define the start and the end of the html, but instead yield a block of other html as some kind of argument. I was trying to look it up, but couldn't find documentation on this. Maybe the author is right and I'm wrong.

And I was wondering why the author isn't using something like Templ [0], which is kind of JSX with Go as hosting language. Probably because it needs the preprocessor / compile step?
