2. after writing something:

but I want my home page shows the list of jobs, how can I do that? I've been doing research I think I have to do a swap?

on my production environment I have something like this->

any feedback is very welcome 🙏

you would need to add a filter to the trigger and keep that state in a variable via javascript or similar

every 10s[noInteractionInLast10s]

this seems like a backend-specific question, can you ask in the appropriate channel?

@mysterious-toddler-20573 Thanks. That's what I had in mind as well. Now I know that this is the way to go. Thank you

sure, I'll do it

The documentation is a bit unclear about whether "Standard filters" apply to the

every

event as well, as it doesn't seem to be a standard event.

yes, I need to update the docs

OR BETTER YET

when you get it going, could you do a PR against them?

🙂

Hi, guys. Could somebody, please, give me a hint about what I'm doing wrong? I'm using Laravel mix for bundling my assets and was trying to expose htmx as a global variable. There is an example in the docs about it, but it doesn't work for some reason. index.js (simplified):

import Alpine from 'alpinejs';
import 'htmx.org';
import './custom';

window.Alpine = Alpine;
Alpine.start();

custom.js

window.htmx = require('htmx.org');

Errors that I'm getting

ERROR in ./src/scripts/custom.js 1:0-11
Module not found: Error: Can't resolve 'htmx' in 'D:\somefolder\src\scripts'

ERROR in ./src/scripts/custom.js
Cannot read property 'module' of undefined

webpack compiled with 2 errors

How do you use HTMX here? (CDN, npm, copy file by hand, etc)?

NPM

importing htmx sets the window variable

so rather than trying to set it directly in custom.js, in index.js where you import htmx:

const { htmx } = window;

that said your error messages are about pathing, so I think it's probably the require call vs the import

Do any of you have experience with vue?

Curious how many experience you have with it before switching to htmx

It’s pretty easy to use

I've used vue and react and angular and backbonejs and would take htmx anyday. It's way less effort. It's really convenient to let the server handle state.

what if the data is on the client like interacting with certain apis

I used Vue. Got tired of it. “Easy to use” is relative. Like if I write something in Python, that’s easy, concise, and expressive. But in Vue there are times I just need to change a few variables and I’m having to change 6 files, “emit” this, “fetch” that, “use” this, “mutate” that…like, what the heck I just wanted to add a variable. The problem is, JavaScript before Vue was such a terrible ecosystem that Vue seems like it’s a big step forward. Which it is, but it’s still not some awesome experience compared to building in other languages.

If you need Vue/React/etc you should know why. Like, it should be clear how the simpler way will become unsustainable, and why moving to a more complex tool is unavoidable. Like if you manage one restaurant, you can drive there and check on it. But it’s clear that won’t work if you have 1000 restaurant locations. It’s clear as day you need a different approach, and the simpler approach is going to fail miserably. If I don’t have that level of clarity why I need React/etc then I’m going to stick with simpler tools.

Would you say an interactive shopping cart is an example of that?

Many ways to build a thing. Will be different for a solo dev selling a few e-books, vs a giant team building an enterprise shopping cart that talks to 30 other systems. Sorry, I’m a bit dramatic to try and get people to consider a different perspective 🙂 In general with systems, whether software or hardware (servers, storage, networking, etc) simpler is always more robust, easier to debug, easier to secure, and so on. But simple doesn’t always scale, so complexity is often unavoidable. Consider if the added complexity from the start is adding anything. Maybe it does, or maybe it helps get a better job. Many sides to consider.

hey all, htmx put a bug in my mind about how websites are developed
