HTMX is the perfect example of a project that, like jQuery, exists to be replaced with a W3C standard. And I don't think the people behind it would feel at all bad about that, as it fills a real niche that ought to have been filled a decade ago.
- recursivedoubts 4y ago100% I would love it if htmx was pulled into the HTML standard, that's where it belongs and I would get more sleep :)
- BeFlatXIII 4y agoWe could've been saved from gigabytes of JavaScript if HTML 1.0 specified that tables must be sortable by clicking their headers.
- naasking 4y agoMaybe, but probably not because it wouldn't help with paginated data sets displayed in tables. You don't want to sort only the items you currently see, but across the whole data set most of which is likely not loaded.
- HenriTEL 4y agoHTML imports got deprecated in favor of ES modules, because JS was required anyway to use those imports. I was disappointed at the time as I wish we could make web components without touching JS directly. Now with HTMX the future sounds promising.
