  • htmx

    </> htmx - high power tools for HTML

    • You should check out HTMX as a tool for adding interactivity through HTML attributes. It's a more balanced approach, IMO.

  • django-ninja

    💨 Fast, Async-ready, Openapi, type hints based framework for building APIs

    • (Side Note: Now while I use flask, I've mostly been coding with fastapi, and this project is using django-ninja which puts a lot of the great features from fastapi. So this code is specific to that, but the concepts translate easily to flask.

  • SurveyJS
