    Is it conditional depending on something that happens on the server?
  • m
    Or is this front end only code?
  • i
    i'm trying to make it front end only.
  • i
    I'm working on porting a ror app to ssr+htmx
  • i
    i'm a novice, so it's slow going, but this is super helpful.
  • i
    i've bought into the whole html over the wire concept. and less javascript
  • m
    no prob, from what you are describing you'll want to hook into the htmx event cycle
  • m
    you can do this with either plain old javascript or hyperscript if you are adventurous
  • m
    localStorage basically just acts like a regular javascript object that persists
  • m
    so, in JS you can say
    Copy code
    js
  localStorage.foo = "bar"
  • i
    yeah, i know the JS route, but really digging the hyperscript model. just pepering the html is awesome.
  • m
    and in hyperscript you can use the possessive expression:
    Copy code
    set localStorage's foo to "bar"
  • m
    There is also alpinejs if you want inliine javascript, but I appreciate anyone willing to look at hyperscript 👍
  • i
    i've moved on from alpine. i started there, but find htmx much better
  • i
    i loved alpine, but htmx does that and more from my perspective
  • m
    you can also use the more traditional dot syntax in hyperscript:
    Copy code
    set localStorage.foo to "bar"
    if you prefer that, or, to maximize nerdieness, the 
    of
    expression:
    Copy code
    set foo of localStorage to "bar"
    here at castle hyperscript we aim to provide many, many footguns
  • m
    I would call this the orthodox hyperscript:
    Copy code
    set the localStorage's foo to "bar"
  • i
    looks awesome. i really like the way you've put this together and the sites are great for learning. btw, the hyperscript site needs search.

    I am hoping next week to have time to work on docs. /cc @User
  • m
    the of expression really is ludacris speed hyperscript
  • m
    i think it's better on the read side than on the write side
  • m
    Copy code
    set x to the url of the window
  • m
    type stuff

    Please forgive me ☝️. This and the #796428329531605032 channel is where I get to let off steam 😁 This is also where I come to escape the toxicness that is twitter/reddit/HN/pretty much all of the social come to think of it
  • m
    i gotta get off social media
  • m
    although it just helped me figure out a nasty problem w/ OSX and button focusing
  • m
    shrug
  • a
    I saw that, from the Unpoly guy.
  • a
    Helpful, that was.
  • a
