    i'm a pretty tough hire: i live in montana & i ain't moving, i teach part time at a university, i practice meme-driven development (MDD) & i'd want to just work on htmx/hyperscript/etc. Not exactly a central-casting FAANG dev. i'd also want to be really careful around the ownership of htmx/hyperscript/etc. as i don't want the community to lose control over them. They are BSD licensed and pretty small, so there isn't much chance of them getting oracle-style hijacked, but still.

    html has tabindex, so i think allowing keyboard nav is in scope for htmx
  • b
    Isn’t it sort of recommended not to use 
    tabindex
    ? Or at least not for defining the tab order? (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Global_attributes/tabindex) It has some accessibility implications.

    hey dudes, @green-insurance-50001 creator of Sanic, the blazing fast, "all in one server" alternative to FastAPI / Starlette has discovered HTMX. 🐍 ♥️ HTMX

    @mysterious-toddler-20573 you've got all the great python frameworks on board now. 😅
  • g
    👋 To be fair, it is not that I recently discovered it. I've seen it and been keeping an eye on the project for a while. But yes, happy to be here and help be a resource if and where I can be, and to learn more about how I can personally use HTMX in my side projects.

    I'm trying to build an enhanced typeahead select. Without js it's just the standard select, but then gets enhanced to a typeahead that filters all the available options. I'm building upon the combobox example, but I'm stuck at two things: - I can't manage to have the 
    <input />
    be inserted by hyperscript and not being ignored by the handlers. processNode doesn't help, as well the attempt at line 34 - I have tried various approaches, but I can't change the select value in a way that triggers the form "change" and the ajax request. https://codepen.io/dariooddenino/pen/jOZLpXe thanks!

    I played around a bit and I think I got it to work by triggering the event on the form instead of on the select
  • m
    Oh, right! How did I miss that?

    welcome adam!

    Anyone recommend a WYSIWYG markdown editor for use with htmx? Wanna make sure i'm not missing out on any crazy innovative projects geared towards htmx.

    I wanted to use Slate but it's React only.
  • r
    Someone stop me before I use prosemirror.

    I had added that already, sorry should've made that explicit
  • m
    how do people feel about the idea of making attribute inheritance explicit rather than implicit? https://twitter.com/htmx_org/status/1528763877911060481
  • m
    (this is a speculative idea, do not freak out and be sure to drink lots of water)
  • r
    I'm guessing an exception will be made for 
    hx-boost
  • r
    Just thinking aloud, not sure how to make that elegant.
  • c
    Hi all, I have to clone parts of a form updating input names, so something like 
    name="steps[1]"
    becomes 
    name="steps[2]"
    . Is htmx a good tool to achieve this client only behaviour, or should I look somewhere else?
  • c
    (given that I don't want to make a new server path to serve the html form fragment....)
  • r
    You can use 
    hx-target
    to specify portions of a full page.
  • r
    So you can just return the page as normal and get the form only.
  • r
    Also 
    hx-boost="true"
    at the top of your page somewhere, might be really good for you.
  • m
    yep, boost would probably still default
  • m
    not sure exactly what I want here
