signals VS htmx

Putting the runic terminology aside and looking into how the signal primitive is implemented should dispel the magic. I learned a lot from examining preact's implementation: https://github.com/preactjs/signals/blob/main/packages/core/...

All the frameworks are starting to adapt them. You can easily add them to react project as well. https://preactjs.com/blog/introducing-signals/

Signals are a design paradigm for reactive programming which have recently trended in the JS frontend space. For e.g., https://preactjs.com/blog/introducing-signals/

Compare Vue's reactivity system to the principles the Preact authors write about here:

Reactivity libraries are at the heart of modern web component frameworks like Solid, Qwik, Vue, and Svelte. And in some cases you can add fine-grained reactive state management to other libraries like Lit and React. Reactively comes with a decorator for adding reactive properties to any class, as well as prototype integration with Lit. Preact Signals comes with a prototype integration with React. Expect more integrations as these reactivity cores mature.

State solution should not be a framework, this is what I dislike in riverpod as well.. its a FRAMEWORK... compare to the simple useSignal hook that preact has https://preactjs.com/blog/introducing-signals/ this looks like an overkill.

Looks like it's coming from here https://preactjs.com/blog/introducing-signals

Sciter got native (built-in) Signal implementation made after PReact's Signals;

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

As described on htmx.org: "htmx gives you access to 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"

Apart from the source code itself, the repo's README also gives a bit more details about the various packages I used.

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.

✨ 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.
