Michael Anckaert used htmx for a CI/CD service

I picked server side rendered HTML as the main technology for the user interface. Thanks to HTMX I was able to add some nice interactivity and UI / UX improvements without having to resort to a large scale framework such as Vue or React. Using HTMX makes me very productive on the frontend, which as a more backend leaning developer is a big bonus. Read more about HTMX and HTML over the wire concepts.

_hyperscript vs Alpine.js

Editor’s note: Let me make it clear that this is not a dig on Alpine in any way. I gave my personal opinion to help people decide what to use. We’re volunteer-run free software projects with a lot of shared goals. 💙

a Hotwire-like library based on htmx?

Would you use that? Let us know.
