Love this. Some real gems. SQLite v4? Htmx posting about SSR? Chef's kiss.

Whoa! Incredible! Talk about a OMSCS success story. Thank you for sharing – this is seriously going to serve as motivation fuel for me to get back into it.

Oh boy, love to hear that. Would be willing to share how exactly it transformed your career?

I was in the very first cohort of this program. I loved it but had to drop for personal/family reasons after finishing three courses. Someday I'd love to jump back in! I highly recommend it to anyone who might be interested.

No one has mentioned it: mobile! Mobile apps became a thing, and there was a strong argument to have one common backend for your web app and your iOS app and your Android app. Plus the mobile UX (especially with iOS apps at the time) was such a gamechanger that there was a natural shift to replicate it in the browser.

That said, even though I still build SPAs at work, but I can't wait for the day that I get to build something big with Django & htmx.

https://webawesome.com is now in beta and I couldn't be happier.

That's fair. I'd probably go through the effort to do that if I was trying to promote my product, but I'm just here promoting htmx/webawesome. Or, more specifically, I've seen plenty of comments on HN asking if anyone has examples of real sites using htmx, and there's been surprisingly few, so I just wanted to do my part and add one lol

Good idea.

I posted this for the htmx-curious, who can use fake emails and fake data, because you're absolutely right: no one should be signing up for random sites with their real info.

Hi HN,

I have a personal project for managing my monthly bills. Ten years ago I wrote it in React (and even posted it here - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12010853 - zero comments lol). Recently I rewrote it using HTMX and the newly-beta Web Awesome.

I'm really happy with the result. IMO it feels like a 2025 website should – it has animations, loading indicators, a nice theme, etc. No landing page though. Again, I wrote this to solve my own problem, not to create a product to sell.

I'd encourage folks to check it out to see that an HTMX site can look & feel just as modern as a React site.

NB: use dummy data and bogus emails – I don't want your real data.

Thanks for reading :)

I think there's some link between the two. Like Polymer was handed off to a new team/owner/governance model and was renamed to Lit in the process. Could be wrong, but that's what I've gathered.

I've been experimenting with HTMX + Shoelace for the last few months. I'm really rooting for Shoelace/Web Awesome to thrive! Especially since Material Web seemed to quickly end up in maintenance mode, I'm hoping Web Awesome becomes the MUI of web components

I miss class components!

(I know we _can_ use them still but it's hard to convince teams of people to stick with them and ignore what the docs say are best practices for the last five years.)

New comment by oaxacaoaxaca in "Ask HN: What is your go-to stack for the web?"

oaxacaoaxaca — Fri, 09 Feb 2024 09:17:32 +0000

Frontend:

- "vanilla" React (no Next.js or any other framework-y bloat)

- MUI

- React Router (v5 because v6 is a pain)

Backend:

- Node

- Typescript

- Express

- Prisma or Sequelize

- Sometimes Django/DRF in lieu of the above

- MySQL or Postgres

Deployment:

- KISS principle: one Digital Ocean droplet, no serverless or any of that
