Hey everyone,
I saw someone mention Htmx during the recent LiveCode conference and I found it really interesting. Hyperscript appears to share a lot in common with LiveCode Scripting language. Does anyone have any experience with using Htmx and its scripting language, Hyperscript? It would be cool if there were some interoperability between LiveCode and Htmx.
Cheers,
Gary Chike

You don't say . . .Hyperscript appears to share a lot in common with LiveCode Scripting language.
Remember that the web-browser thing and HTML came out of the HyperText concept in HyperCard,
of which LiveCode is the great-godson.

Hi Gary - I'm not sure i understand the question. If you have LC/server/HTML5, why would you want to use lesser tools like HTMX and HyperScript?garmeister wrote: ↑Tue May 10, 2022 4:09 pmI saw someone mention Htmx during the recent LiveCode conference and I found it really interesting.

Server is quite mature and renders webpages as these tools aspire to, but in a more complete x-talk implementation. Or to put it differently, these tools seem like the lesser bastard grandchildren of hypercard, against the pureblood descendent that is LiveCode
So yes, there are some similarities but I can't see LC having any interest in this.
The only value of these opensource projects may in fact link to OpenXTalk, the openSource initiative that was created to try and preserve the openSource LiveCode, that was discontinued last year: https://openxtalk.org
This may in fact be the thing for the openXTalk community to focus on, rather than trying to resurrect the ancient hulk of the LC openSource carcass...
Re: Htmx and Hyperscript
i use htmx for quite a long time. htmx like alpinejs, jquery. htmx works on the client side.
like a javascript library but write the syntax directly in html, for example hx-get "https://urllivecode.server/get01"
livecode server like php. browser will reload when sending http request( get or post)
htmx is ajax, browser will not reload. if send http request.

Re: Htmx and Hyperscript
Thanks guys for the insightful responses! It's good to hear everyone experiences with LC and other similar technologies. I'm still learning much about the lay of LC land
