totally not an htmx shill

Generally that's correct, htmx.onLoad() replaces the standard jQuery initalizer. Only real trick is that you initialize stuff in the content passed in to the onLoad() callback, rather than initializing the whole document like you do normally in jquery: Note that the query selector is run against the newly inserted `content` element, rather than globally, so you can initialize the library just for the new content that has been added to the DOM (and avoid accidental double-initialization of things.) Alternatives are: using alpine to init the element on load using hyperscript to init the element on load The first one is sane, but not how I would do it unless I already had alpine in my code base and I was comfortable with it. The second one is insane and not recommended, but I do love hyperscript.

? I appreciate that, but htmx is fairly feature complete and is supported by my other work. intercooler.js, the predecessor to htmx, has been up for nearly a decade without any sponsorships: https://intercoolerjs.org I don't anticipate htmx being any different, although I always do appreciate any sponsorships! Thank you for the warm welcomes. I don't know how useful I'll be, but I'll try to answer any questions I can around htmx as honestly as possible.

hi, my name is carson, and I created htmx and, since we're here, hyperscript.org (for lunatics only)

htmx supports using morphdom for swapping with the morphdom-swap extension agree 100% w/ @Craig's characterization of htmx as lower level than unpoly: it's an extension of HTML rather than a full framework (with, for example, a notion of layers). That can be good or bad, depending on your needs. Unpoly is a wonderful library that follows the same general html-oriented approach, but provides a lot more infrastructure baked into the core. I think either one (or, hotwire, for that matter, which is even higher level than unpoly) is a great choice for html-oriented development. I obviously prefer the lower-level "improve on HTML" approach, but they all have plusses and minuses. I'm (all to) happy to chat about htmx either here, on the htmx discord, or anywhere else. -t.totallyNotAnHtmxShill
