A Real World React – Htmx Port
I do indeed. The project is called SPX (Single Page XHR) which is a play on the SPA (Single Page Application) naming convention. The latest build is available on the feature branch: https://github.com/panoply/spx/tree/feature - You can also consume it via NPM: pnpm add spx (or whichever package manager you choose) - If you are working with Stimulus, than SPX can be used instead of Turbo and is actually where you'd get the best results, as Stimulus does a wonderful job of controlling DOM state logic, whereas SPX does a great job of dealing with navigation.
I developed it to scratch an itch I was having with alternatives (like Turbo) that despite being great are leveraging a class based design pattern (which I don't really like) and others which are similar were either doing too much or too little. Turbo (for example) fell short in the areas pertaining to prefetch capabilities and this is the one thing I really felt needed to be explored. The cool thing with SPX which I was able to achieve was the prefetching aspect and I was surprised no-one had ever really tried it or if they did the architecture around it seemed to be lacking or just conflicting to some degree.
A visitors intent is typically predictable (to an extent) and as such executing fetches over the wire and from here storing the response DOM string in a boring old object with UUID references is rather powerful. SPX does this really efficiently and fragment swaps are a really fast operation. Proximity prefetches are super cool but also equally as powerful are the intersection prefetches that can be used. If you are leveraging hover prefetches you can control the threshold (ie: prefetch triggers only after x time) and in situations where a prefetch is in transit the module is smart enough to reason with the queue and prioritise the most important request, abort any others allowing a visit to proceed un-interruped or blocking.
In addition to prefetching, the module provides various other helpful methods, event listeners and general utilities for interfacing with store. All functionality can be controlled via attribute annotation with extendability for doing things like hydrating a page with newer version that requires server side logic and from here executing targeted replacements of certain nodes that need changing.
Documentation is very much unfinished (I am still working on that aspect) the link in readme will send you to WIP docs but if you feel adventurous, hopefully it will be enough. The project is well typed, rather small (8kb gzip) and it is easy enough to navigate around in terms of exploring the source and how everything works.
Apologise for this novel. I suppose I get a little excited talking about the project.

Hanami and HTMX - progress bar
Hi there! I want to show off a little feature I made using hanami, htmx and a little bit of redis + sidekiq.

Migrating Next.js App to GO + Templ & HTMX
Recently, I just rewrite one of my application Stashbin from Next.js to GO. Though my main motivation of this migration was to learn GO and experimenting with HTMX. I also aiming to reduce the resource usage of my application and simplify the deployment process. Initially, Stashbin codebase are split into two seperate repository, one for the frontend that uses Next.js and another for the backend that already uses GO. The backend repository is just a REST API responsible for storing and retreiving data from the database.

🕸️ 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.

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.
