glsp VS templ

I wrote a lisp, a while back, and then later added an LSP for it.

Since lisp is so simple in terms of syntax what I really did was tab-completion, and info-on-hover, for the built-in functions like "car", "cdr", and the primitives I added as part of a more complex standard-library.

In my case I was writing in go and I found an LSP-server package which was trivial to use. So getting the integration with emacs, vim, etc, was really trivial:

For Go I use this library. If you want examples for Go, you can have a look at the github-dependents of the library.

Built on the excellent glsp package and heavily inspired by golangci-lint-langserver, this is a language server for golangci-lint.

I'm using https://github.com/tliron/glsp which works pretty good for me together with the official specification of the ls-protocol

Templ for the templating engine. Although Go already have a decent templating engine, I'm planning to use Templ because it's more powerful and flexible. I really like this library and I'm planning to use it in my future 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.

Templ - HTML templating for Go

html/template - we will be using the standard HTML templating library built into Go. It is a great library and perfect for simple things like this, though if you have a more complicated project (I assume you do), I would look into using something like templ.

Cool project and if it works for you and you're happy, that's all what counts.

When I read the article, I was thinking that Go templates were used wrong. I was thinking there must be a way to define the template so you inject the content and don't need to define the start and the end of the html, but instead yield a block of other html as some kind of argument. I was trying to look it up, but couldn't find documentation on this. Maybe the author is right and I'm wrong.

And I was wondering why the author isn't using something like Templ [0], which is kind of JSX with Go as hosting language. Probably because it needs the preprocessor / compile step?
