HTMX is incredible, I adore it. Typically, my stack for a web app is a Golang webserver using Fiber[0], HTMX, SCSS, my own (experimental) templating engine [1] and SQLite. It's a sufficiently hype-free stack, in my opinion, and one that's been fairly well battle tested (bar the templates) and is pretty simple. It's a joy to use!

- iamgopal 4y agoGoneon looks interesting. Is it trying to provide compatibility with quick templates etc or aim to reach jinja level features parity ?
- akpa1 4y agoThe aim is to be just as functionally similar to QuickTemplate, though not compatible. I like the idea of QuickTemplate a lot but the I find it lacking and annoying to use in various ways. For example, I find its syntax is annoying to write, I don't like having to re-declare the types of my variables whenever I use them and it's error reporting is near useless. Currently, Neon is just barely at MVP. I'm dogfooding it and adding to it as I find I need things.
- iamgopal 4y agoTry to release boiler plate template that uses these tech, if possible and convenient.
- akpa1 4y agoGood idea! I'll remember that for when Neon is suitable for people other than myself to use, thanks :)
