Make HTML More Powerful! πŸ’ͺ

Four issues with HTML: 1. Why should only ‘a’ and ‘form’ element πŸ”€ be able to make HTTP requests? 2. Why should only click & submit events πŸ‘† trigger them? 3. Why should only GET & POST methods πŸ“₯ be available? 4. Why should you only be able to replace the entire page πŸ”„?

What if every HTML element could make a request? πŸ€” What if we could update just a part of the page? πŸ”„πŸ’‘ What if we could break free from all these arbitrary constraints? πŸš€

Introducing HTMX! πŸŽ‰

HTMX feels like the logical evolution of HTML. 🧬 It gives you these capabilities through simple HTML attributes – no JavaScript needed! βŒπŸ”‘

It’s time for this to be part of HTML 6! 🎯

It’s a game-changer, shifting web development away from the SPA approach, JavaScript frameworks, and client-side rendering… πŸ”„πŸ“Š

Bringing back server-side rendering of HTML. You can leverage your back-end knowledge once again!

And, I’ve got to say, I’m loving it! 😍
