  </> htmx - high power tools for HTML

  

For small and medium-sized applications, Go’s templates and a bit of HTMX (https://htmx.org/) are a fantastic combo. No extra dependencies to rely on. I’ve built 3-4 side projects that way and won’t honestly do anything else unless we’re talking about a larger team that is already used to React, or has serious scaling ambitions.

• Tailwind CSS

  1,275 78,166 9.4 TypeScript

  A utility-first CSS framework for rapid UI development.

  

Expanding on some of the answers below, it doesn't always have to be either/or. After many years working with SPA's via React/Vue/Svelte, I've completely switched to HTMX, Hyperscript, TailwindCSS, and Go for all my frontend needs.

• todo

  3 195 4.0 Go

  spiking out a todo list with htmx (by quii)

There's an open source TODO list example here. It generally gives you the right idea of where to go, though I do things a bit differently. I found this repo very helpful to get started though.

• inertia

  Inertia.js lets you quickly build modern single-page React, Vue and Svelte apps using classic server-side routing and controllers.

  

It seems that everyone is in htmx camp. Is really nobody using https://unpoly.com/ or https://inertiajs.com/. I find both of them interesting. I haven't used neither of them but unpoly v3 from what I have read seems easier/better than htmx

I now always use https://github.com/maragudk/gomponents for frontend components (I'm the author of that library) together with HTMX (https://github.com/maragudk/gomponents-htmx), and it's just so much more fun and fast to work with.
