Building a fullstack app with Flask and HTMx

• shoelace-css

  73 11,962 9.6 TypeScript

  A collection of professionally designed, every day UI components built on Web standards. SHOELACE IS BECOMING WEB AWESOME. WE ARE LIVE ON KICKSTARTER! 👇👇👇

  

I've been wanting to do this switch too and have the same concern. One option worth investigating is Shoelace - https://shoelace.style/, a library of nice looking web components that you can just add to your page without setting up a whole build pipeline.

• flask-unchained

  2 80 6.8 Python

  The quickest and easiest way to build large web apps and APIs with Flask

I had the same pain points with Flask, so I built Flask Unchained to integrate many of the best extensions (IMO) to all work together out of the box in a reusable way:

• WorkOS

  workos.com sponsored

  The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  

• htmx-python-course

  1 280 4.5 JavaScript

  Student details, source code, and more for our HTMX + Flask: Modern Python Web Apps, Hold the JavaScript course.

  

Recently saw Michael Kennedy's presentation at Python Web Conference where he talks about this. He also has a course on using Flask + HTMX. Even if you don't take the course, you do have access to the github repo for that course.

He wrote a small library extending Jinja that does what you're referencing here, I believe. It's a little different than Jinja macros and include (you can reference the github issues for a discussion on that).

Maybe that's what you're looking for?

• jinja_partials

  1 174 6.1 Python

  Simple reuse of partial HTML page templates in the Jinja template language for Python web frameworks. #pypackage

• django-htmx

  18 1,392 8.5 JavaScript

  Extensions for using Django with htmx.

If you use django-htmx, it's pretty simple to get the "this HTTP request came from HTMX" flag and branch accordingly in your view. The docs give a simple example of the logic here:

https://django-htmx.readthedocs.io/en/latest/middleware.html...

The examples give a fleshed-out version: https://github.com/adamchainz/django-htmx/blob/main/example/...

Though that's very slightly different than how I described it above, but it's basically the same idea; in this case you commonize the `main` block between the two contexts.

• Alpine.js

  242 26,798 9.3 HTML

  A rugged, minimal framework for composing JavaScript behavior in your markup.

  

I was going by Github language stats indicating 90% HTML / 10% JS https://github.com/alpinejs/alpine
