How I built a cross-framework frontend library
At the very bottom of the image, there are 3 blocks that I chose to call application components. If you are building a cross-framework library, these can be built with whatever tools you want! Only catch is, all the tools you use to build it, will be needed by everyone consuming it. So choose wisely, and be mindful of how many kilobytes of third party code you will need in order to ship. In Schedule-X, I chose to use Preact. You will probably be fine with most lightweight virtual DOM libraries, and just like with frameworks there are a few to pick from.

HTML Data Attributes: One of the Original State Management Libraries
DEV is a Rails monolith, which uses Preact in the front-end using islands architecture. The reason why I mention all this is that it's not a full-stack JavaScript application, and there is no state management library like Redux or Zustand in use. The data store, for the most part on the front end, is all data attributes.

Hacktoberfest 2023 Recap
Along the way, I not only got the oppurtunity to revise old concepts that had blurred in my memory, but also learnt about new technologies like Fresh.js, a framework from Deno (a js runtime engine) that uses Preact, a React Routing library and used Chakra UI for the first time.

Framework Interoperable Component Libraries Using Lit Web Components.
I've thought about this a lot while using other frameworks like Deno Fresh which uses Preact under the hood, mainly for JSX templating, but also for islands functionality. Within that framework you can't really use React component libraries. You start to think more about generating static HTML like this example from the Deno blog [A Whole Website in a Single JavaScript File, cont'd](https://deno.com/blog/a-whole-website-in-a-single-js-file-continued, which shows building a simple webpage with routes all in one typescript file, a site that serves no Javascript to the browser.

Nue: A React/Vue/Vite/Astro Alternative
A truly reactive Preact [1] is merely 3 kb of JS.
OTOH the need for really simple bits of interactivity does occur in real life. If the htmx [2] approach does not cu it, a micro-library like this could.

How are folks feeling about the React team's push toward server components?
Is Preact in that general vein? I've never used it, I only know it's "lightweight React."

🤓 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.

Htmx Is Composable?
> But honestly, torn towards htmx but undecided.
We are in the middle of migrating from our monster react application into server rendered pages (with jinja2). The velocity at which we are able to ship and the reduction of complexity has been great so far.
Managing client side state for simple things like (is the dropdown open/closed), listening to keyboard events and such can be done with something like alpine-js [1] without all the baggage that something like react brings.
It appears this is already the trend with JS frameworks too - with server side rendering being the new norm.

Coming to grips with JS: a Rubyist's deep dive
Sure, you can use any number of JS-avoidance libraries. I'm a fan of Turbo, and there's also htmx, Unpoly, Alpine, hyperscript, swup, barba.js, and probably others.

Kicking the tires with NestJS and Hotwire: Part II
If you want more details on the initial setup I encourage you to take a look at the Part I that covers more of the initial implementation. For this portion, I added Prisma as an ORM, a frontend style library called Tachyons, and AlpineJS to handle any client-side interactions. I did this to avoid needing to add a client-side bundler to the build and instead just rely on plain old module imports to compose the frontend. This is now the default for Rails and it is quite nice to not need any additional build tools for the client.

What's the easiest front end framework to pick for a simple website?
You're way out of the "simple website" territory already, If your backend is working and you know your way around it just make it render some HTML and send it to the browser. Then if you really want a javascript framework for interactive elements maybe alpineJS ?
What are some alternatives?
Svelte - Cybernetically enhanced web apps
petite-vue - 6kb subset of Vue optimized for progressive enhancement
htmx - </> htmx - high power tools for HTML
React - The library for web and native user interfaces.
Stimulus - A modest JavaScript framework for the HTML you already have [Moved to: https://github.com/hotwired/stimulus]
hyperscript - Create HyperText with JavaScript.
jQuery - jQuery JavaScript Library
react-18 - Workgroup for React 18 release.
knockout - Knockout makes it easier to create rich, responsive UIs with JavaScript
Mithril.js - A JavaScript Framework for Building Brilliant Applications
Angular - Deliver web apps with confidence 🚀
solid - A declarative, efficient, and flexible JavaScript library for building user interfaces.
