Completely agreed, I have the same feeling about a change in the zeitgeist. I just hope it’s not just because I want it to be true nolanlawson.com/2022/05/21/t…

I’ll just leave @htmx_org over here and watch the smile on your face.

I’d like to smile, but something like <div hx-put="/messages"> makes me cry

not for everyone, but it's a consistent generalization of hypermedia: - an element can issue a request - any event can trigger a request - any HTTP verb can be used - any element can be replaced

I’m sure it meets its goals well, but unobtrusiveness and progressive enhancement don’t seem to be among them

It seems to me that hx-boost on a form or anchor is *exactly* this: htmx.org/attributes/hx-boost… See e.g. dev.to/rajasegar/htmx-and-ht…

htmx and HTML Driven Development

Nice to see it can be used to do PE (even if it does not seem to be the default)

What library or framework do you recommend for building regular web apps (i.e. not SPA)? I've heard that hotwired.dev does progressive enhancement by default, but I didn't have a chance to try it on a project, yet. Any experience with it or with alternatives?

Pick two. For most web applications, any decent server-side library or framework will do. It’s probably a good sign if it doesn’t mention any client-side programming at all. For client components, vanilla JS or anything that doesn’t have server-side ambitions is fine, too :)

I don’t see it that harsh. Whether it does PE or not solely depends on how you use it in your template. Some (me) like that rather strict, others like to go beyond HTML semantics. If it helps to burn SPAs in a fire, both ways are fine with me.
