Weekend with AlpineJS

Weekend with AlpineJS

Just like I did one on Tailwind some time ago, I am going to play with AlpineJS the next few days. It’s a nice little JS framework that stays out of your way and lets you sprinkle in some reactivity as needed- you get to keep your DOM to yourself. It is the “A” of PETAL stack. I didn’t really enjoy the “T” of PETAL, not any fault of “T” but my personal choice. I have never even scratched a line of AlpineJS yet so it would be cool to see how it fits my brains.

As with my other journals, I’ll just speak with myself as I progress through things. My reference will still be the Covid19 Dashboard (it’s like the only open source live view project I have).

I’ll document my learning, pain-points, awe(some|ful) moments here along with screenshots and stuff! Just pushed the branch hello-alpine! Let’s get started :smiley:

Too late for that. I have decided to rid JS entirely for this project. I’ve had it, since LiveView helped me not write as much JS as I normally would, why not take it to the next level and write my hooks in a non-js language as well?

I am experimenting with ClojureScript at the moment. I have a few hooks, charts and maps. So this should be a good story if I can get it done in ha a day (I haven’t done any meaningful Clojure for more than half a decade)

Damn it worked! Sorry I gotta postpone this thread. Just wrote my first phx-hook with ClojureScript. Three more to go! :heart:

Will share the code once I’m done, looks like I will be in an hour max.

Wait what huh? Are you using ClojureScript with Reagent? And therefore… React? ClojureScript with LiveView does sound like great fun.
