SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Builds interactive hypermedia-driven user interfaces by combining templ with HTMX to minimize client-side JavaScript and maximize server-rendered interactivity.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Server-driven interactivity with HTMX for dynamic content updates
  • Type-safe, reusable templ components that render HTML fragments
  • Progressive enhancement: functional HTML without JS, enhanced with HTMX

Quick Start

Add templ components and HTMX-enabled handlers to render dynamic, real-time UI updates without heavy JavaScript.

FAQPage Schema
How do I build interactive UIs with templ and HTMX without heavy JavaScript?

Build interactive UIs with templ and HTMX by creating type-safe templ components that render HTML fragments and exposing handlers returning them for HTMX targets. This enables server-driven dynamic content updates without heavy client-side JavaScript.

What is progressive enhancement in server-rendered HTMX applications?

Progressive enhancement in server-rendered HTMX applications provides functional HTML without JavaScript first, then enhances dynamic content updates and real-time interactions with HTMX. Templ components act as reusable templates rendering HTML fragments suitable for HTMX targets.

Can I use templ components for AJAX-like behavior in multi-page applications?

Yes, you can use templ components for AJAX-like behavior in multi-page applications. Templ components render HTML fragments suitable for HTMX targets, enabling dynamic content updates and real-time interactions across single-page or multi-page contexts.

Do I need a specific runtime to render templ components for HTMX?

Yes, rendering templ components for HTMX requires the templ runtime and HTMX. The runtime executes type-safe templ components to generate HTML fragments that HTMX targets for dynamic content updates and real-time interactions.

What's the best way to update dynamic content in templ apps without client-side JavaScript?

The best way to update dynamic content in templ apps without client-side JavaScript is using HTMX to request HTML fragments from templ handlers. This server-driven approach returns reusable templ components directly to HTMX targets for real-time interactions.

Why does HTMX require HTML fragments instead of JSON from templ handlers?

HTMX requires HTML fragments instead of JSON from templ handlers because it is a hypermedia-driven solution for server-rendered interactivity. Templ components render these HTML fragments to update HTMX targets, minimizing client-side JavaScript for dynamic content updates.
