HTMX can do all of that via OOB updates no?
- yawaramin 1y agoYup, which is why I never understand why people keep making this criticism that could have been avoided by just reading the docs a little bit more or even asking on the htmx Discord.
- munchlax 1y agoYeah but then you don't get to write a cool blog post.
- hide_on_bush 1y agoyou miss the sse support (in htmx it's a plugin) and the reactivity part (like alpine).
- sudodevnull 1y agoif you think they work the same at all you haven't tried either
- TeddyDD 1y agoOOB is annoying in HTMX because you need to include hx-swap-oob attribute in every component you want to swap this way. In Datastar you just use id.
- sudodevnull 1y agoSure, go try doing it and see what happens. Make sure to handle every verb, automatically connect, expo backoff, etc!
- Hnus 1y agoI literally do that, it is not that hard. Getting locked into framework with weird licensing is probably harder engineering problem to solve.
- nchmy 1y agothe htmx dev literally created idiomorph because, among other reasons, OOB isn't sufficient. A version of idiomorph is what datastar uses internally
