I know htmx is a good idea, still waiting to see if hyperscript pans out. :)

It still needs some pretty basic stuff like for loops and so forth. The goal is for it to be a embeddable, DOM-friendly & transparently asynchronous scripting language so you don't need to deal w/ callbacks:

  on click 
    add .throb to me
    wait 3s
    remove .throb from me
  end

I'd like to make ajax and web workers trivial to use from it. I hope to have a lot more time for it in the next year, now that htmx is stable. We'll see. Suggestions welcome!

edit: one thing I'm pretty sure about is that I'm going to go back to an interpreted runtime over the transpilation I'm doing now
