    Hello!

    @User I'll keep an eye on both, but the gitter room was based on intercooler anyway

    @User thanks for the answer about button value, I think I get it. Do you think a note on the docs re parameters is in order? I'd have a go, but not sure how to word it tbh.
  • m
    yeah, definitely needs clarification in the docs
  • m
    @User can you log a github issue so I don't forget?

    @ > is there a good forums option for open source software, or is discord where stuff ends up? @User Github has a feature in beta called

    so you keep everything in one place. You can already see it in some projects like https://github.com/alpinejs/alpine You could try to contact someone at Github to see if they can enable it for you. https://twitter.com/DivineOps/status/1275163664748855298

    thanks, followed up on that tweet

    Hey all
  • b
    Glad to be here 🇮🇪
  • m
    welcome @User and thank you for listening (at least in my imagination) to my rants
  • b
    Rants?! Ha, far from it man
  • m
    My grandmother was from Cork
  • b
    Nice! I'm in the sunny south-east 😁
  • b
    Thanks for entertaining my questions too
  • b
    Gonna have to re-write a SPA as I mentioned before, and the thought of replicating the same issues and complexity, just in a different frontend framework worries me
  • m
    Yes. If you are going to do a rewrite, I can confidently recommend htmx
  • m
    if it's just a piece, and you will always have to stay with using the REST API, that's a different story
  • m
    OTOH, it might be worth it as a POC
  • m
    Is this enterprise/internal stuff?
  • b
    Enterprise
  • b
    Internal (for now) with the intention of becoming a product
  • m
    OK, so you are probably feeling the pain I mentioned in this article then: https://www.infoq.com/articles/no-more-mvc-frameworks/
  • b
    For sure. Just not sold on the proposed solution
  • m
    yeah, I know
  • m
    there aren't a lot of folks talking about what I'm saying
  • m
    I started talking this way about a decade ago at an enterprise company and they thought I was crazy too 🙂
  • m
    I need to write it down in an essay with better examples at some point
  • b
    I get the same looks from devs, especially young ones who've never coded with a server-side MVC framework
