Exactly my thoughts. Decided to publish and iterate.

Deslopifying over time could verywell be a viable approach.

„You’re absolutely right” ;)

Your onto something here, thanks - the title and the section where the things I’ve spent more time on than the rest

I mean this „ Behavior, right where it happens. moo= for reactive signals and ordinary JavaScript on the element itself. Datastar SSE when the interaction has to cross the wire and patch HTML and state.”

Still feels bad but I know I went trhu it couple of times. Not so much with the new sample you give here.

Gotta work on that. Thanks!

Wooow. I never really thought about it this way, but kind of it makes sense. Humans more intend to stream concepts in form of words when LLM just stream words that relate to the current concepts.

It’s almost identical but the first approach makes the reader feel the writer wants to arrive somewhere

I use datastar daily so yes there’s a lot of this contexts in my reasoning and conversations. It’s also a project that kind of focuses on how they do things and how they work internally.

Maybe I should try to approach docs in non-htmx / Datastar user context - will think about it

LLMs now will tell you that all your farts smell amazing - I kind of feel my English degrading over the past years. Gosh I have to work on it more intentiaonnly

Hope you’ll like it. At least concepts, I know htmx live or datastar are more mature so there’s no discussion about it.

Would you have any hints what to avoid for „next time”? Should I just make this absurdly small and make much less polished approach even for this kind of project? Honest question. Will try to work on anything you suggest <3

I meant the headline - because I understand that’s what you refer to. I’ll try to make is less like spam post next time. Just headlining as „built tiny js lib that works like HTMX live or datastar but also slightly different”

Anyhow, thanks for commenting - will try to improve for next time

Thanks!

It’s always work in progress for me, but hope you like it and inspires you to make cool things!

Ai generate with human in the loop, so hard to say it’s not while also saying it’s terrible.

Definitely the fact that I have ai makes it more fesable for me to actually publish something rather than spednign years on copy I can spend time on code and outsource copy

bobowski··on Htmx live is cool. Datastar is fast. This cow is raw and strong
Yea. Any particular thing you’d say is beyond terrible - in matter of concepts not just the visuals? Actual library is fairly cool if you asked me - concept wise to learn a thing or two about how web works
bobowski··on Htmx live is cool. Datastar is fast. This cow is raw and strong
Yea. The bad thing as non native English speaker and spending whole days with LLMs at this point I can’t event notice that’s something sounding bad.

Any hints what should I look at to avoid this?

I hope you like the concept of the ox at least ;)

Take a look at cookbook. Lots of examples and solutions. Landing page could be better, I agree

Stario uses datastar. It’s just a full integration with it to make Python native experience
