Re:Ludic: New framework for Python with seamless Htmx support on Thursday March 21, 2024 @11:16AM (#39779587)
It feels weird at the beginning, but after a bit of practice I found it pretty nice to write HTML in Python.

Here is an example of a HTML page layout written with the DOMinate [1] library for example, in a "JSX-like" way:

It may hurt your eyes at first sight, for sure... But similarly to technologies like Tailwind CSS, it's mostly a matter of getting used to it - and after a while it end ups feeling very natural to use :-)

It’s possible to build quite dynamic user interfaces with htmx - even games :-)

One benefit I found to it is that it allows developers to keep the business logic entirely on the backed side, without having to duplicate any effort on the frontend side.

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...

Well unless you use a less traditional setup such as FrankenPHP, in order to run PHP behind a Nginx server you still need a long running process for PHP-FPM, if I'm not wrong? :-)
