[PHP] python/htmx vs php/javascript

hey list...

Talking with a dev that mentioned doing some projects in python/htmx.
I'd never really looked into the tech, so thought I'd post here to see
what some have to say about it.

Have you used it? Any thoughts/feelings about it? If you have checked
it out, is it easy enough to port from the python/htmx to the
"php/javascript" world/env??

thanks

Bruce,

I've never used htmx in a project, but I've looked at it, and my understanding is that it's not coupled to any backend technology. You mentioned python/htmx, but you could also use htmx with PHP, Ruby, Java, etc. htmx is written in JavaScript, but it provides an abstraction so that you can do a lot of the dynamic things JavaScript provides simply by applying attributes to HTML tags.

At least, that's my understanding of it. Hope that helps.

Cheers,
Ben
