    In a way its a big advantage because you can pick the best for your workflow, but the patterns aren't always obvious if you're super new.
  • b
    That’s niiice^ Could also use oob swaps in this instance, just add them into the success response targeting an #existing-id
  • r
    Thanks, aha. I literally just thought of it. Keepin it simple.
  • b
    Yep same here @refined-waiter-90422 😅 so many choices, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing, like you say!
  • r
    The huge win of htmx is the building blocks are so flexible. Cheers to @mysterious-toddler-20573 for that.
  • r
    Yup oob swaps would be another way.
  • b
    Absolutely. My team are loving using htmx with Django rather than a huge JS framework
  • r
    Yeah. The type of developer on this server is highly inquisitive, it's refreshing. Not tied up with resume driven development.
  • f
    Well I love using VUE it makes a lot of sense from frontend point
  • f
    But all the extras you need todo to use VUE + installen 1GB+ node packages that you don't know what they do and obscure errors made me wonder if HTMX is a replacement
  • b
    @fancy-elephant-10660 if you want to talk about how django & htmx can work together in more detail, there’s a django-htmx channel on this server as well
  • f
    yes I have seen @blue-ghost-19146 I'll do i future if django related question. Thx for the help

    Hello guys check out a small library that supports Alpinejs, Htmx and much more in python and feels like React JS in python, please give feed backs too https://github.com/bitplorer/uidom
  • r
    cool for people who enjoy that pattern. I'm more of a "use raw html files" guy. I really wish Python took the PHP route and just embedded python directly in HTML... 👀
  • r
    There's so much shit I miss from PHP.
  • r
    we have so many peeps here that re-implemented PHP style file-based routing in Python 😆
  • r
    just copy/pasting a file to create a new route is insane productivity
  • c
    I have written my whole website using uidom library, it feels better than writing viewsets in Django at least 😋
  • r
    Yeah I bet i'd be nice if you're into the pattern.
  • c
    you can explore more about uidom by exploring demosite folder 📂
  • c
    Well I forget to add, you can use raw html too inside uidom, 😅

    is there a way to get htmx to trigger off any change in a form field? Including if I use hyperscript to change it?
  • a
    I think it only triggers change if the user changes it
  • a
    but sometimes I'll have hyperscript set the value of a form field, but I still want it to trigger and do the thing it's supposed to do when a selection is made
  • a
    what's the best way to accomplish this behavior
  • r
    You want 
    hx-trigger="changed"
  • a
    can I use "changed" as a stand alone trigger? or does it have to modify change?
  • a
    hmmm, no doesn't work
  • a
    Copy code
    html
<select hx-get="/listofflavors" hx-swap="innerHTML" hx-target="next select" hx-trigger="change changed" id="id_matches-4-theirDeck" name="matches-4-theirDeck">
  • a
    So the problem is I have this select element, it updates the next select with a list of appropriate options.
