sprig VS React

Standard Go templating seems really lacking if you come from something like Jinja. Even with libraries like https://masterminds.github.io/sprig/ (used e.g. for Helm templating) it feels hard to use.

Eleven, you'd be surprised what go template libs are out there like sprig. https://masterminds.github.io/sprig/

If you use Go templates be sure to use Sprig as well to get more usable functions.

I'd highly recommend tossing in the sprig library and depending on how you break up your templates, maybe creating a custom "include" helper instead of using the built in define/template helpers. The advantage of this is that if each template is capable of rendering itself independently, you can potentially render all of your templates in parallel.

The discoverability of golang templates is terrible, IMHO, since it's missing a "dir(locals())" equivalent and every execution environment gets to make its own rules about what pipelines/functions are exposed

Look at helm as an example: https://helm.sh/docs/chart_template_guide/function_list/ is some of them, https://helm.sh/docs/chart_template_guide/accessing_files/#p... are some others, but they also glued in some version of https://masterminds.github.io/sprig/ So, short of (a) knowing that's the case (b) having 3+ bookmarks in your favorite browser to refer to those reference pages, how would anyone know what pipelines are available?

Separately, I dooooo nooooooot understand why every joker has to invent their own new thing when we have like 50 or so templating languages already. Golang may be an outlier in that competition due to the Google Promotion Packet Effect(tm) but how they came up with `{{ range }}{{ end }}` as sane syntax is some true facepalm, to say nothing of the same landmine that ansible stepped on by not switching jinja2's default characters: `{{` is not _yaml safe_

You mentioned something about PHP. We also already have a templating language in the standard library that can be extended (commonly done with sprig).

Plopjs looks interesting and is probably not too hard to write for yourself in Go. You could add something like sprig for some useful template functions.

Not at all. It was "write a helm template using the following imaginary values in a values file". In 30 minutes, I was able to google the Kubernetes api and the sprig functions for templating, complete the assignment, fix a stupid typo the unit test caught, and spend 5 minutes trying to think of any corner cases that hidden unit tests might catch (I don't know if there were any hidden unit tests). The goal of this take-home assessment was to prove that you are not wasting an engineer's time when they call you, not to prove that you should be hired.

Support sprig in Template

They may refer to the definitive shortage of built-in functions. The template engine itself only provides the bare minimum. That's usually not a problem because of template function libraries like https://github.com/Masterminds/sprig

We are continuing to add new project templates for various types of projects, and we've recently created one for the infamous combination of React with Vite tooling.

Go to https://react.dev/?uwu=true for a surprise.

You can use any frontend framework you want — react-based tooling, however, has a natural advantage as it models everything as a function of state, which can map 1:1 with the concept in Burr. In the demo app we use react, react-query, and tailwind, but we’ll be skipping over this largely (it is not central to the purpose of the post).

Oddly, no info on changelog: https://github.com/facebook/react/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md

In this post, we get to know more about Preact, one of this year's trending libraries. And we'll compare it to React to see which one suits better for our projects.

Basic knowledge of ReactJs

Google Translate and many other libraries break React based sites if they are using refs.

I don't think that point it falls under "written on naive assumptions"

This isn’t an accident; when Meta introduced React Server Components, Dan Abramov explicitly stated that they collaborated with the Next.js team to develop the RSC webpack plugin.
