How are you liking templ? I've played around with it a bit and am not totally sold on it yet.
There are some rough edges around using `script` templates[2], for example it doesn't allow you to pass `this` and `arguments` from HTML event handlers[3]. This is not a show-stopper though, because you can always fall back to just defining your event handler in an HTML <script></script> block, albeit without type checking of the arguments and deduping the scripts. Also it hurts Locality of Behaviour which I'm a fan of.
That being said, I think it has some great potential. I can completely imagine people building fully-fledged UI libraries in this once component reusability is improved.
But the best part of using templ for me was that I could completely get rid of Node and NPM from my stack.
How was your experience?

But being able to break things into reusable components with templ is compelling (and works fairly well from my experimenting). I’m just not in love with how you pass data into it and I ran into a few awkward points with the string interpolation of data when doing inline scripts.
I’m sure if I spent more time with it, I’d overcome these issues quick.
Yeah, passing data if for some reason you can't use templ's `script` block can be annoying, if that's what you meant! I think they should make sure that the `script` block works in every situation and then it's going to be way less awkward.
