HTMX
HTMX is a JavaScript library that enables HTML attributes to initiate HTTP interactions, handle events, and update portions of a page.
Quarkus in Action
HTMX is a client-side web library that enables HTML-driven interaction with servers and dynamic page updates without requiring custom JavaScript for many use cases.
- How it is used
- Enables asynchronous, partial-page updates in a server-rendered reservation management UI.
- How deep it goes
- Works through HTML attributes, Qute fragments, and REST endpoints; stops short of HTMX internals.
- Examples
- Shows a GET-driven greeting, date-filtered available cars, a reservations table, and a reservation form.
- What you can do after
- Build it from scratch with HTMX attributes, Qute HTML fragments, and Quarkus REST endpoints for targeted page updates.
Django in Action
HTMX is a JavaScript library that enables HTML elements to initiate HTTP interactions and update portions of a page.
- How it is used
- Adds partial-page interactivity to Django applications without extensive JavaScript.
- How deep it goes
- Explains request attributes and walks through lazy loading and inline editing views, templates, forms, and routes.
- Examples
- Demonstrates lazy-loaded promoters and inline editing of rooms associated with a venue.
- What you can do after
- Apply it via HTMX attributes to fetch Django partials and update targeted page regions.
