does this integrate with django?
Like, just using htpy [1] with Django and some minor component abstraction seems like it might already be a feature complete version of this.
Django is fantastic and I'm a big fan, but it's gotten over-complicated in recent years IMO and isn't explicitly designed to work well with HTMX or ASGI. Using it with htpy and htmx is a totally reasonable option for folks that already know Django well, but it's not going to be quite the same thing as using FastHTML.
On the one hand, Django’s not “fully async”, etc.
On the other hand, someone built Instagram with it, and it hit the right balance of structure and flexibility that they could modify it’s pluggable parts to meet their needs, and eventually it’s perhaps nothing but the Django request/response cycle with everything else custom built. But to me that’s a wildly positive success story. Working as intended.
And you know, the trope of “you don’t have any users”, funny because it’s (usually) true. Like async/etc doesn’t matter when you need to serve 1 request per minute.
