SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Build interactive hypermedia-driven web UIs by pairing templ components with HTMX, enabling real-time updates with minimal JavaScript.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Server-rendered, template-driven components with client-side interactivity via HTMX.
  • Progressive enhancement: core HTML works without JS, with enhancements for dynamic behavior.
  • Use cases include dynamic forms, live content updates, and AJAX-like interactions in traditional server-rendered apps.

Quick Start

Mount HTMX in your server and begin enriching templ components with hx- attributes to drive dynamic, in-page updates.

FAQPage Schema
How do I build reactive UIs with server-rendered HTML and avoid writing JavaScript?▼

You can build reactive UIs by pairing templ components with HTMX, enabling dynamic, server-driven user interfaces and real-time updates with minimal JavaScript. This approach delivers interactive web components through progressive enhancement.

Can I use HTMX with templ components for partial page swaps and AJAX-like flows?▼

Yes, HTMX integrates directly with templ components via hx- attributes to drive dynamic, in-page updates and partial swaps. This combination handles AJAX-like interactions in traditional server-rendered apps, including forms and lists.

What is the best way to add progressive enhancement to server-rendered web components?▼

The best way to add progressive enhancement is enriching templ components with HTMX attributes. Core HTML functions normally without JavaScript, while HTMX dynamically enhances behavior for interactive UI features like live content updates.

Do I need a specific framework to handle real-time updates in traditional web apps?▼

You need the templ framework and HTMX integration to handle real-time updates in traditional web apps. Mount HTMX in your server and enrich templ components to deliver dynamic, hypermedia-driven updates across dashboards and forms.

Does using HTMX for interactive UIs mean my web app breaks without JavaScript?▼

No, using HTMX with templ relies on progressive enhancement, meaning core HTML works without JavaScript. HTMX simply adds dynamic behavior and interactive UI enhancements on top of the functional server-rendered HTML foundation.

What are the limitations of server-driven user interfaces built with templ and HTMX?▼

Server-driven user interfaces built with templ and HTMX are limited to traditional web app contexts like dashboards, forms, and lists. Complex client-side state management may still require additional JavaScript beyond standard progressive enhancement.
