    said its limited but works

    It's hard to know what data @User is referring to in his example.
  • q
    Yeah, that could def work for me, thanks!
  • m
    @User in django case what ever you specify in your urls.py ... int, str ..
  • m
    Aweomse!
  • q
    There are just some JS/Ajax calls I do atm that don't use forms to drive the data but I still want them to be a POST instead of a GET.

    The hx-vals attribute lets you include values, including using arbitrary javascript with the javascript: prefix: https://htmx.org/attributes/hx-vals/
  • q
    Oh, awesome! Thanks, I'm still looking through the API reference. lots to learn there 🙂
  • m
    No prob. Push come to shove you can usually pull off what you want with the events or using an extension, but that’s not usually necessary

    Hi everyone, Im looking into HTMX (and other solutions) to see if should encourage my team to start using it. I have many questions, but at the moment Im having trouble wrapping my head around the fundamental differences between HTMX and Unpoly. Could someone explain it to me (or point me to a blogpost which describes the differences)? For example: I believe 1 of the differences is that unpoly always expects full page reponses from the server whereas HTMX is developed around the idea of the server returning partial html fragments? Cheers!
  • m
    unpoly is more of a javascript framework, with a notion of layers and so forth. Htmx is an extension of HTML, so less out of the box functionality but also less imposed conceptual load.
  • m
    I don’t know if an in-depth comparison at this time
  • m
    I do like the unpoly team and either is a going to be a good choice
  • u
    So HTMX is more lightweight, but a developer would need to have more JS programming skills to extend/integrate with HTMX to create features like modal dialog? While with Unpoly more can be achieved out-of-the-box by applying html attributes? Did I interpret that right? (English is not my native language)
  • m
    Yes that’s a reasonable take. Htmx has less magic. It’s a straight extension of html without additional concepts.
  • m
    e.g. unpoly has explicit popup overlays: https://unpoly.com/up.popup
  • m
    htmx would need a third party library for modals: https://htmx.org/examples/modal-bootstrap/
  • u
    Allright. Thnx for explaining. 👍🏼

    I discovered fow (fragments over the wire) via unploy. But I settled on htmx. Htmx has some basic attributes and this is quite simple. This simplicity impressed me. Unpoly has layers, but I think this is a different aspect, which should get solved by a different library.

    Today I learned the acronym ‘FOW’. Nice 😁 The concept of FOW however is not new to me. I usually hack something together (using jQuery) on pages where i needed it, but my ad-hoc solutions always grow into hideous spaghetti code. I really like the idea of using a library which will make my handcrafted cruft obsolete. I will continue fiddling around with HTMX 😎

  • b
    Found the error After login I am setting the cookies but on android cookies is not set that is why I am redirecting back to Login
  • b
    corrected the cookies setting it is working now.

    Once upon a time I though JSON-over-the-wire is the future. Once upon a time I though GraphQL is the next big thing.... Here the google trend:
  • b
    FOW, or FrOW? I like that the latter is more easily pronounceable and is a real word. Thoughts? 🧐 😆
  • s
    I don't know. What do other people here in this channel think?
  • b
    You're pioneering the term here, so I don't want to presume 😁 Just thought the 'r' added something nice lol
