Products that do what Full-stack _hyperscript Node.js TODO web app (with Htmx) does

Hey HN! I think _hyperscript is an insanely cool language, and while designed for simple front-end DOM interactions, I thought it would be a cool back-end scripting language as well. So, I slapped together a TODO app with a _hyperscript bootstrapping script based on the original repository's node-hyperscript example. My repo isn't clean, just something I worked out over a weekend to prove the concept, also an excuse to play with htmx. :) Please read the README, and let me know how, if anyone's interested, I can work in some of my tweaks to the original repository. I'm kind of a noob with…

    Source https://github.com/dashborg/hibiki | Interactive Tutorial https://playground.hibikihtml.com/tutorial/ I love JavaScript, but for many projects -- especially internal tools and prototypes -- setting up a full frontend JavaScript stack (npm, webpack, babel, create-react-app, redux) and all of their configuration files, folders, and scaffolding is overkill. Hibiki HTML incrementally plugs into any backend, using any template language (even static HTML files) with a single script include. It includes a built-in frontend data model, Vue.js-like…

    Lightweight server-oriented template language for JavaScript

    It's very early days for the project, but I wanted to share it to see if there is interest. It is the final piece of the FastAPI server-side rendering stack I started building with FastHX and htmy (the two dependencies of this project besides FastAPI). Think of it as a more powerful and convenient alternative to tools like FastHTML, powered by FastAPI (without any modifications). I hope you'll like it.

    Hello HN! I've been working on http://underthesite.com for the last month and now think it is ready for some full strength HN feedback. What do you guys think? It crawls up to 10 pages of a given site while you wait, looking for community-provided CSS / XPath selectors and regular expressions. Additionally, I'd like to appeal to you to submit matchers for technologies that you care about. Technologies are easy to add, so add your favorite jQuery plugins, analytics tools, client-side node.js wrappers, what have you. I'm going to be running a large crawl in the next few days and want to make…

    Hi everyone, After four years, I'm finally open sourcing my little markup language that compiles directly to HTML, and has all the "modern" features built into the core, (reactive components, server side rendering, modules, bundling, etc.). No metaframework required! Feels like I really have something here, I'd love your feedback :)

    I made a starter template for creating Haskell web-applications using HTMX, AlpineJS, Servant, TailwindCSS and Lucid (HASTL) - I really enjoy working in this stack and I think it brings together a lot of cool technologies with the awesomeness of Haskell doing all the heavy lifting I also tried to make it "production ready" by adding build and test tools e.g. it comes with simple Make targets and with unit and integration tests that use testcontainers to spin up the database and web application to test against. It's based on the awesome servant-persistant example by Matt Parsons…

    A while ago I started this side project to test if I could build a rich User Interface that would have about the same level of responsiveness than a "SPA-like" app, but using only htmx[1]... I still have plenty of stuff in my roadmap, but today it's in a playable state and I thought it could be interesting to share it - as it may be a nice demonstration of a relatively rich user interface powered by htmx :-) --> https://zakuchess.com As for the stack: it's built mostly with Django, htmx and Tailwind CSS. It uses a SQLite database, and is hosted (for free) at Fly. The characters'…

    Hello HN, I had some christmas free time over the last two weeks (Merry Christmas btw ;-)) and used that time to completely recreate the website of my app[1]. I used all the fancy new tools. I didn't know some of them when I started. What was my goal? * Pretty website * Blazing fast * Mobile first * SSR * Webp support * Generally all the best website practices (high lighthouse score) What did I use? * Tailwindcss (https://tailwindcss.com/) * Tailwind Components (https://tailwindui.com/) * React (https://reactjs.org/) * ViteJs…

    Howdy friends! Tell me if this is an atrociously terrible idea - I've been working on building a leetcode for clientside devs so we can practice React and Javascript interview questions in a more concise way, I call it clientside.dev I just finished a beta version of it yesterday and plan on releasing it with many more problems on Jan 1st but it's there if you wanna play with it open to any ideas / feedback however mean or nice it may be :)

    Hi everyone, I've been working on this thing for a while. It transpiles Haml into Ruby, and then it streams patches to the browser which update the DOM. There is a memory leak in s.rb, which I'm not really sure how to solve. Seems like objects stay alive for longer than they should because of circular references or something but I'm not sure what's going on to be honest. I think this approach has potential though.

    Hi folks, I started thinking some time ago about how to use ReactJS's server-side features with backends that aren’t specifically built with Node.js or Deno. After some research, I found that the only strict requirement is a JS engine for server-side rendering, while the rest of the runtime can be in any language. For this reason, I started developing a full-stack ReactJS web framework with a Rust-based backend (the API draws heavy inspiration from Next.js). The server performance is already impressive, with a 4x improvement over the latest Next.js. We’re tracking it in a separate…

    Hey, I'm absolutely thrilled to introduce my meticulously crafted Next.js Boilerplate, a project I've maintained for over 2 years. Recently, this project has achieved a huge milestone, over 4500+ stars on GitHub! Initially, I've build the boilerplate for my own use case. A template that allows me to kickstart a new React project with all the necessary tooling. The idea is to setup once and then reuse the template for all my future web projects, eliminating the need to start from scratch each time. This approach tremendously saves time, sparing me from repeatedly configuring and integrating…

    Hey everyone! Some time ago I was analyzing why React apps are so hard to optimize, and came to a conclusion that the lack of atomic updates is the culprit. I made an experimental library which basically updates everything in place directly in HTML. At some point I became aware that Solidjs exists, which is a very similar idea, but at the end of the day I realized my approach to API is quite different and warrants the existence of my library (my state primitive allows selector subscriptions, array iterators return a state primitive with the element, allowing to never re-render the whole…

    Hi everyone, the other day I was here cause I thought I came up with a neat way of creating HTML via JavaScript [1] - After some iterations, I'm quite content with the code I wrote. Since I intend to use this in my personal projects, I thought others might as well. 1 - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41451559
