Probably you're not aware yet that there are also "modern ways" to do server side templates/html. Nowadays you have things such as Unpoly, Htmx, Hotwire, Livewire, etc which can be added incrementaly to any traditional MVC applications leading to an incredible reduction in the amount of work necessary to ship something robust if you're a single developer or in a small team.
SPAs can be great for large teams with different skills/profiles, and large companies with a lot of money though.
- gime_tree_fiddy 5y agoUnfortunately, this kind of discussion ends up turning into a knife fight these days here. I tried using HTMX recently for mainly a CRUD app for personal use, with limited dynamic loading. Still felt the need to rely on JS(Jquery) for loading images and triggering refresh on list of items without full page reload[1]. Did a small A/B test from dev POV using Vue.js, as it is one of the more lighter frameworks. Ended up leaning more towards Vue.js, as had to do some non-conventional(from HTMX POV)[1] things for a simple CRUD app not relying on full page loads/refreshes. Hopefully there is another step in this evolution.
- recursivedoubts 5y agowould you mind reaching out to let me know where htmx fell down for you? htmx at bigsky dot software or you can jump on the discord if that works: https://htmx.org/discord https://htmx.org/discord thanks for taking a look at htmx
