    I still have no idea what to do about the "javascript library that trashes the DOM" problem
  • g
    it has real events!
  • m
    events are good
  • m
    I'm an event guy myself
  • g
    some way for developers to annotate an element as "i use a library that will trash this"?
  • m
    Some guys like sports cars, some guys like boats. Me? Events. A good solid event model? 🤌
  • g
    Events, so hot right now
  • m
    Someone should make a programming language for events.
  • m
    In my big intercooler app, we catch the history save event and we uninitialize libraries that trash the DOM
  • m
    very manual, such unfortunate
  • m
    ideally, libraries would present a reversable mechanism that could be hooked into when snapshotting the DOM, but that's about 3000 years into the future
  • m
    🤔

    I shall start postfixing all my things with "The X". "HTMX. The Library" "Google. The Website"

    It's nice because you always have space to make "The Movie" later on when you're succesful 😂

    Is it possible to use htmx or hyperscript to work with localstorage?
  • m
    yep
  • i
    I can't find any reference on either site. i'd love a pointer.
  • m
    Copy code
    set localStorage's foo to "bar"
  • m
    what are you trying to accomplish?
  • i
    store a value in localstorage that survives a reload.
  • m
    Yep, pretty easy. When do you want to store and retrieve the values?
  • i
    usually it's in response to a get or after a form was filled in in conjunction with a put.
  • m
    OK, so some sort of event, e.g. https://htmx.org/events/#htmx:beforeRequest
