What a great example, If I’m looking at the second jQuery example, I have to dig into dev tools or make some assumtions that this team uses jQuery, and selects by id, therefore I can grep for $("#d1"). Consider two different implementations of an AJAX request in HTML [2], the first in htmx [3]: <button hx-get="/clicked">Click Me</button> > and the second in jQuery: ``` js $("#d1").on("click", function(){ $.ajax({ /* AJAX options... */ }); }); <button id="d1">Click Me</button> Note This post is a thought [4].

Litestar: Effortlessly Build Performant APIs We all know about Flask and Django. And of course FastAPI made a huge splash when it came on the scene a few years ago. But new web frameworks are being created all the time. And they have these ea... talkpython.fm [1] Litestar is an interesting api framework similar to fastpi, that I am interested to check out to see if it fits into some project scope. It sounds like it comes with a lot more batteries included for things like auth, but does not have hard opinions like django. At this point I’m not jumping off of fastapi [2], but its something I want to try. Note This post is a thought [3].

GitHub - florimondmanca/arel: Lightweight browser hot reload for Python ASGI web apps Lightweight browser hot reload for Python ASGI web apps - florimondmanca/arel GitHub · github.com [1] arel is a “Lightweight browser hot reload for Python ASGI web apps” I just implemented this on my thoughts website using fastapi [2], and it’s incredibly fast and lightweight. There just two lines of js that make a web socket connection back to the backend that watches for changes. When in development mode, this snippet gets injected directly on the page and does a refresh when arel detects a change. const ws = new WebSocket("ws://localhost:5000/hot-reload"); ws.onmessage = () => window.location.reload(); Note This post is a thought [3].

Pagefind Pagefind is a fully static search library that aims to perform well on large sites, while using as little of your users’ bandwidth as possible, and without hosting any infrastructure. Pagefind · pagefind.app [1] Pagefind is absolutely insane. I’ve tried a number of static site searches, and found them all hard to get get going, clunky and not the best experience as a user or developer. I setup pagefind in about 2 minutes on my site where it found and indexed 833 pages in 2 minutes. The only downside I see so far is that it is a lot of bandwidth to the user. On simulated slow 3G you can definitly feel it, but not terrible. Anything slower and its going to start feeling frustrating. edit: I have actually fully deployed it on waylonwalker.com, and its fast! create the index npx -y pagefind --site public --serve Then I put this on a page, it looks really nice on a white background, but would need some work to drop into a dark theme. <link href="/pagefind/pagefind-ui.css" rel="stylesheet"> <script src="/pagefind/pagefind-ui.js"></script> <div id="search"></div> <script> window.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', (event) => { new PagefindUI({ element: "#search", s...

In the past I had tried the vim plugin a few times and just could not get a good flow with the keybindings and found it confusing for my occasional use. emmet-ls just uses lsp-completion, so its the same flow as other completions.
