seaweedfs VS Alpine.js

Whoops: WebDAV:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39417503

SeaweedFS supports WebDAV. https://github.com/seaweedfs/seaweedfs/wiki/WebDAV

I'm not able to find if both/restic supports mounting backups as WebDAV, but in theory there's nothing stopping you.

It's 100% user space (expose a rest service) and supported by a bunch of file-browsers with a bit of a network aware component to it as well.

If you want/need to take out the metadata, there's some nice solutions for that https://github.com/seaweedfs/seaweedfs

I posted this on https://github.com/seaweedfs/seaweedfs/discussions/5290

I like the idea of using SeaweedFS as an intermediate layer with object write notifications going to SQS, RabbitMQ, or a local file, which could also allow me to observe the changes to different files through a metric collection layer like Prometheus and Grafana.

> Theoretically they could swap with minio but last time we used it it was not a drop-in replacement yet.

Depends on whether AGPL v3 works for you or not (or whether you decide to pay them), I guess: https://min.io/pricing

I've actually been looking for more open alternatives, but haven't found much.

Zenko CloudServer seemed to be somewhat promising, but doesn't seem to be managed very actively: https://github.com/scality/cloudserver/issues/4986 (their Docker images on DockerHub were last updated 10 months ago, which is what the homepage links to; blog doesn't seem active since 2019, forums don't have much going on, despite some action on GitHub still)

There was also Garage, but that one is also AGPL v3: https://garagehq.deuxfleurs.fr/

The closest I got was discovering that SeaweedFS has an S3 compatible mode: https://github.com/seaweedfs/seaweedfs

Alpine.js for reactive frontend

✨ 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.

> 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.

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.

Direct DOM, but with a library. Specifically AlpineJS since it follows Vue closely in design practices allowing me to scale into a full web application if necessary (basically swapping to Vue takes minimal work). The Morph plugin is specifically what I like using.

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.

- [swallow-pywebview](https://github.com/rangwea/swallow-pywebview)： Base on [pywebview](https://pywebview.flowrl.com/) using Python，the frontend base on [alpinejs](https://alpinejs.dev/) and [tailwindcss](https://tailwindcss.com/)。

If you’ve followed our other tutorials, you might be familiar with Alpine.js. It’s a lightweight JavaScript library that allows you to add interactivity to your site without writing a single line of JavaScript. It’s incredibly easy to use, and we’ll show you how to make the animation trigger when the user scrolls to it.

The approach is not new, essentially a variation of Knockout, Alpine, and similar "JS-in-HTML" approaches.
