I was on vacation when this came out.

I’m curious @Jason_Cunliffe, how would you see this interacting with TiddlyWiki? There’s an overlapping functionality: part of HTMX does part of what TW does: abstract the use of JS into the markup layer.

But that’s all the commonality I see at a casual look. What else are you seeing?

Perhaps best quick BiG one line answer is:

TW on Makepad

https://makepad.dev/
live demo
Try it on your phone too :white_check_mark::thinking::+1:

Recent Video — really good work

∆∆∆ be sure in the video how “Slides” are not only live editable with clean syntax, a ‘slide’ can be anything = a full application (TW5 TW24)
Or the 3d tree fracture
Click on everythingything
It’s all alive

Oh TW your new home is beckoning

My take from my (admittedly brief) look into the details on the promo page, I tend not to agree to (or at least, remain to be convinced by) the arguments made for it. The arguments put forth under the heading motivation read like a joke.

I’m not a fan of code in attributes. I know from (bitter) experience it leads to a maintenance runaround that proves expensive in the long run. And debugging? Pretty terrible. Don’t take my word for it… </> htmx ~ Documentation

It actually sounds worse than terrible, if that’s possible.

I’m all for declarative coding.

But this looks like rearranging the imperative bits.

I’ve spent a little time and so far am unimpressed.
