"htmgo - build simple and scalable systems with go + htmx"

[maddox @maddoxdev]

One of the nicest things I'm finding with https://t.co/ggGzsSIw4f (go + htmx) is not having to register routes for every partial in my app, htmgo allows you to call a partial just by the function reference in your code (it automatically registers routes behind the scenes at build time)

take this example: https://t.co/v8wTpHN1HL, the form submission partial is within the same file, and the form is able to reference it just by its function reference, no manual routing at all.

shoutout to @htmx_org for making hypermedia more mainstream, finding my productivity is greatly increased

[maddox @maddoxdev]

@Khajiit_san @htmx_org fixed now, sorry bout that

[maddox @maddoxdev]

@PavelSnajdr @htmx_org copying html from a html component library like hyperui as an example

[maddox @maddoxdev]

@Khajiit_san @htmx_org strange, it works on my iPhone, ill take a look

[maddox @maddoxdev]

@htmx_org appreciate the shoutout!

@The_Licanu If your interested, give https://t.co/KI98kTjsAB a shot too

[maddox @maddoxdev]

@arturofiliov give https://t.co/jscmDrCDGp a shot!

@iamgoroot @golangch Templ is nice but last I used it, the DX in jetbrains IDE’s was really bad. I think the LSP is broken

[maddox @maddoxdev]

@_trish_07 @golangch The pages are still SSR’d so yep should be fine!

[maddox @maddoxdev]

I’m working on some larger web applications with it currently to validate it. If something like this interests you, please give it a star on github

[maddox @maddoxdev]

I really like the idea of using htmx, but it’s a little too low level and needs a thin layer above it to facilitate things like components, better syntax with complex JS inside of an attribute, etc

To try and solve this problem with a very minimal stack (golang + htmx) I’ve been enjoying, I’m creating https://t.co/YcSbxH8kmh

@nullpointered @yacineMTB This is why I made https://t.co/KI98kTjsAB

can the narrator from stanley parable narrate me at work too

i feel like twice a year i get this urge to try to write a game engine from scratch even though i have no game dev or math background

[maddox @maddoxdev]

I used to hate python due to its dynamic nature, but it’s type hinting system + pyright for static type analysis is actually pretty good

[maddox @maddoxdev]

@sydneanschutz It’s still edible so what’s the problem

[maddox @maddoxdev]

I have relied way to much on gc languages over the years

[maddox @maddoxdev]

Why does it feel like every line of code I write in rust throws at least one compiler error

[maddox @maddoxdev]

“Many new users to Rust experience something we like to call 'fighting with the borrow checker', where the Rust compiler refuses to compile a program that the…”
Yep this is me
