Htmx and the Rule of Least Power
An early version of Htmx was in fact based on jQuery (https://intercoolerjs.org).
-
Rage: Fast web framework compatible with Rails
I used HTMX since the intercooler days [0] but the stuff you can make is rather limited. Also you still need the JS to deal with a11y things like expanded state (or hyperscript, apparently).
If you have a lot of components to implement, everything requires thinking.
I really love it for simple applications though. Resist implementing a complicated menu, live notifications, an editable data-table and such non-web-native things and you can create the fastest CRUD app ever.
And you will need another client, but that's not really an issue if your view model does not contain non-public data (it shouldn't), as you can convert it to JSON at the same endpoint and call it an API.

Htmx is part of the GitHub Accelerator
:) hyperscript came after htmx
htmx is version 2 of intercoolerjs:
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 stabilized I revisited the idea, remembered my experience w/ HyperTalk as a young programmer, and decided to take a shot at that, but for the browser.
I'm very happy with how it worked out, although I expect it will always be niche when compared with htmx, which has much broader applicability and isn't as insane looking. :)
to an extent, there was `jQuery.get` but it wasn't tightly integrated with HTML
the original version of htmx was intercooler.js:
released in 2013, and that version depended on jQuery

- We're breaking up with JavaScript front ends

Ask HN: What are your “scratch own itch” projects?
You asked for it:
I hated angular when it first came out and couldn't believe what insanity people were willing to come up with, so long as it came from google. (e.g. GWT) I created https://intercoolerjs.org out of frustration with that, and the lack of progress in HTML/hypermedia in general, so I could build a web application I was working on (https://leaddyno.com, since sold).
When covid hit I took a look back at intercooler and decided that it was really two things: HTML++ and a scripting language, so I split it up into htmx, focused just on the hypermedia angle, and hyperscript, the scripting language I wanted for the web (derived from HyperTalk, and old scripting language from HyperCard on the mac).
I know use them both professionally (email me if you want to use them too.)
-
Ask HN: What are some tools / libraries you built yourself?
I created intercooler.js in 2013 so I could do AJAX in HTML:
Last year I removed the jquery dependency and cleaned it up based on a lot of lessons that I learned, renaming it to hmtx:
Same idea: extends/complete HTML as a hypertext so you can build more advanced UI within the original hypermedia web model, and cleaner implementation.
Part of that cleanup involved me pulling out some functionality around events and a proto-scripting language (ic-action), and I enjoy programming languages, so I created a front end scripting language to fill that need:
It's based on HyperTalk and has a lot of domain specific features for lightweight front end scripting, kind of a jQuery or AlpineJS alternative.

Ask HN: I feel my career is at a dead end. Any advice on what could I do?
This is my experience, and your mileage may vary:
Multiple times in my coding career I have felt stalled and/or like I was regressing.
Early on, I worked on a programming language, gosu (https://gosu-lang.github.io/) which ended up not really going anywhere. Once the work on it was done, I returned to more mundane web programming for a while. A long while after that, and unexpectedly, I turned a jQuery function I was noodling on into intercooler.js (https://intercoolerjs.org/). After a year of that I returned to mundane web programming for quite a while. Unexpectedly, a year ago, the country shut down. I was at home and decided to see if I could remove the jQuery dependency in intercooler.js, and so created htmx (https://htmx.org/). When creating htmx and removing some attribute/functionality, I realized that a small programming language would be the ideal replacement, so I created hyperscript: https://hyperscript.org/. I had not expected to work on a programming language again, but now I am.
So my career has been some very exciting technical projects punctuating long stretches of pretty basic web development, where the most exciting thing is me wondering if I can figure out what the deuce is wrong with my CSS. My takeaway here, at least in my career, is that patience is a virtue, and the interesting stuff tends to come up at irregular intervals and in unexpected moments and ways.

HTML over-the-wire is the future of Web Development
htmx is the successor to intercooler.js. It swaps parts of the page, not the whole page like Turbolinks. htmx allows you to access 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

Ask HN: Who wants to be hired? (March 2024)
Summary:
Do you find yourself overwhelmed with work, requests, or complaints and in need of assistance to alleviate the pressure, enhance communication, facilitate organization, prioritize tasks, and foster greater trust and transparency?
Alternatively, I can work as a full stack developer.
AWS Community builder, AWS User group Leader, public speaker (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qdu58NAQfU0&t=271s)
Or perhaps you need both? =)
I have 4+ years of experience as a product manager and 8 in product development (before pm: agile coach, UX designer, and developer).
I've been the co-founder of the open-core company behind the OSS project Leapp (https://github.com/Noovolari/leapp)
Please feel free to reach out.

OKTA Identity Engine Upgrade
You can switch to saml2aws using the browser method instead of the Okta method and it will continue to work after the upgrade. There is also a really neat GUI tool to manage your session tokens that also works. https://www.leapp.cloud

When using AWS Organizations SSO for multiple accounts (dev, stage, prod) I have a hard time knowing which account I'm currently logged into.
Take a try to Leapp: https://github.com/Noovolari/leapp

Ask HN: Should open source projects track you?
Hello everyone, I'm the maintainer of an open-source DeveloperTool (https://github.com/Noovolari/leapp)
With a heuristic of 7000 users daily, I started feeling the need to have more information on how Users are using the project to improve it.
Is it the right thing to do to create a better Developer Experience and gain feedback for the end users?
On a side:

Ask HN: Secure and simple way for secret/credential management in a startup?
- For all your employees I can advice you Leapp as open-source project (https://github.com/Noovolari/leapp). It solve mayor of the problem listed here:
-
Alternative Official SDK
I am looking to manage Leapp (https://www.leapp.cloud/) from the StreamDeck. Leapp allows you to manage and switch between different Cloud Accounts (AWS, Azure, etc). Leapp has a command line interface which I could automate with a StreamDeck plugin. Unfortunately it looks like the only official SDK is the sandboxed JavaScript one. This means I cannot automate command line tools with it.
-
Multiple active AWS consoles in the same browser with Leapp open-source browser extension (for Firefox and Chrome)

-
You should have lots of AWS accounts
That nightmare is the reason why I started my OSS project https://github.com/Noovolari/leapp
-
Never put AWS temporary credentials in env vars or credentials files (2021)
Leapp generates credentials process on your behalf, from AWS sso to MFA to SAML federation https://github.com/Noovolari/leapp
-
Stop putting AWS credentials in the credentials file
Yep, This and https://github.com/Noovolari/leapp/ are doing the same things, leapp is more for a bigger amount of sessions to manage. and auto-rotation of the credentials
What are some alternatives?
aws-vault - A vault for securely storing and accessing AWS credentials in development environments
htmx - </> htmx - high power tools for HTML
sshportal - :tophat: simple, fun and transparent SSH (and telnet) bastion server
saml2aws - CLI tool which enables you to login and retrieve AWS temporary credentials using a SAML IDP
