    Tomorrow I speak about htmx at the Chemnitzer Linux Tage (in German). Slides: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1KHtEitL4O-EjbxrWdUk8oV9ciXcB39MLOA295QGqK28/edit?usp=sharing Page of the Talk https://chemnitzer.linux-tage.de/2021/de/programm/beitrag/167 Feedback is welcome.
  • m
    looks great! Thank you for talking about hyperscript too!
  • a
    Ich freue mich! Es ist ganz toll dass du über htmx und hyperscript reden. Deine slides sind einfach zu verstehen und du erkläre es alles sehr gut 👍💪

    @mysterious-toddler-20573 with so many good tutorials/articles/examples lately about using HTMX/Hyperscript, have you considered a section on the site to collect these? Maybe even just extending the "Examples" page with links to 3rd party examples? If it already exists somewhere and I missed it let me know.
  • m
    Seems like a good thing to add, maybe to the "Talk" section? Want to put together a pull request?
  • b
    I'll work on that this week!

    Hello ... I am super new to htmx and I was wondering if there are some more examples somewhere to be found - I want to use htmx for a simple status message that for example gets a JSON from the backend?
  • s
    The 'htmx way' would be to let the backend return the html for the status message and use htmx to update a div with the html
  • s
    AKA "HTML Fragments over the wire"

    hello, I recently discovered htmx and so far I really like it. you can say that I'm not good at web development, so I have a question about polling with 
    hx-trigger
    - is it somehow possible to "remember" the last ID or something of the last element in the response?
  • u
    basically I imagine a forum thread with hx-trigger checking for new posts so that the server only has to provide new posts and not old ones
  • b
    would I use a HX-Trigger for that with every 1s?
  • g
    Yes. you can use 
    hx-trigger
    to poll your server every 1s. That's probably the simplest way to get started. There's even an example on the website for how to do this: https://htmx.org/attributes/hx-trigger/
  • g
    You can also use two different server-push technologies: WebSockets (hx-ws) and Server Sent Events (hx-sse) as more efficient ways of delivering notifications to the browser.
  • g
    Does this make sense?
  • s
    depending on how time ssensistive the status message is
  • s
    ifd use SSE or sockets if you need timing down to the second
  • m
    easiest thing to do is to switch to load polling and encode the last fetched date parameter in the URL: https://htmx.org/docs/#load_polling
  • s
    id poll if you only need to check over 30 seconds or more
  • m
    but yeah, if you want better interactivity, web sockets or SSE are your tickets
  • s
    in reality most 'checks for new data' do not actually need to happen as frequently as you think.
  • u
    @User thanks
  • u
    and @User too :)
  • s
    unless you are moaking a chat of course 🙂
  • u
    i'll look into web sockets and SSE
  • m
    more work server side, but worth it for highly interactive applications
  • u
    and maybe load polling too
  • u
    I thought it wouldn't do what I want, but seems like it will
