    However, I've lost the hover effect that used to appear using just a link tag
  • n
    I noticed this happens to all the htmx-fied links
  • n
    is this by design?
  • n
    My fix is to force the style using something like: 
    a { cursor: pointer; }
    butnot sure why the style disapears inthe first place.
  • m
    probably because the anchor tag lacks an 
    href
  • m
    you can either deal w/ it via css or you can add something like 
    href='#'
    to the link

    I just listened to the devmode.fm podcast. Very nice!
  • l
    As I've mentioned, these two appeal to me because I've not been able to get into JS.

    Re _hyperscript and htmx, to me, what htmx lets me do is move business logic from the browser to the server (where I can happily do it in Django). The rest of the logic in the client is presentation logic, and that's what _hyperscript is for.
  • l
    My feeling is that if your _hyperscript on any given element is more than three lines, you're doing it wrong.
  • l
    And that in most cases, even people who don't know _hyperscript are going to be able to read the commands on an element and guess what it does correctly 70-80% of the time.
  • l
    And for me, as someone starting out, the _hyperscript cheat sheet will be a game changer. Because I've read the online docs and I'm fine with the concepts and what it offers, the question is what to type when I need to type something, before I've built up the muscle memory. The cheat sheet's going to make all the difference.

    I am trying to run htmx test suite from the command line with 
    npm run test
    on my Mac. I get a lot of garbage then the process stalls. Is that the current state ?
  • g
    It's easier to run tests by running an http server on the project root (i.e. with 
    python3 -m http.server
    or 
    npx http-server
    and navigate to 
    /test/
    in your browser.

    I wonder if Chrome is crashing.
  • e
    It works fine via the browser. But I thought it would be great to setup CI.

    That was it
  • n
    Thanks
  • n
    I think HTMX should add the style or 
    href
    value itself
  • n
    that way it'll show the correct link on hover too
  • n
    I'm realizing now that it breaks 
    CMD
    + click too
  • n
    :/

    Just because you can make requests from any element doesn't mean you should. Use 
    <a>
    and 
    <form>
    wherever it makes sense
  • g
    This is a htmx PSA
  • g
    oh and 
    <button>
    too
  • w
    Lol "why should they be the only ones?" well... reasons
  • g
    because they're good
  • g
    there are valid reasons to use requests from a div, like live updating
  • g
    but "click to go to a page" should always be 
    <a>
