An action that renders HTML from JSON will either:
— Require additional client-side templates and then it's back straight to hell;
— Require really specific JSON structure, basically HTML-in-JSON, which will be ugly as hell and totally meaningless. Meaningless, because then it means I need to adapt my API to this format, and then I can just make it return HTML.
- piranha 3y agoYeah it’s only the first way, since the second is effectively the same as rendering html on the server. As for the first - it could give a way to use legacy apis and static data. Not sure if I want this in the core, but… how hard can it be?
- murkt 3y agoSure, if it's only one additional five-liner action that's not even in core, then whoever wants to bring the hell back - it's only their own doing
