Hi,
htmx seems have some kind of hype even though the project has it's roots
in 2013 with intercooler.js. So, not a new idea but interesting for
simple use cases.
afaik, from some brief investigations, htmx cannot replace jQuery, as it
is expected that the server does provide rendered html to be displayed
in the corresponding container.
Even though JSON plugins exist, it does not seem to have a great importance.
For more complex use cases, where you need templates to render the
response of an ajax call, it seems not to be sufficient.
Best way to prove its usefulness would be to provide more complex, OFBiz
related examples and compare the legacy and htmx solutions.

Hi,
Indeed htmx seems to be a very convenient tool, I've been wanting to
try it for a long time (never did though, read about it, watched
videos showcasing it).
Nevertheless, AFAIK htmlx (which is a JavaScript library) could be a
great replacement for AJAX stuff (sending asynchronous requests,
updating the DOM on response), but I think we would still a lot of
what lives in OfbizUtil.js and handles UI things like datepickers,
popups, fields validation etc. That could be a great addition for
sure, but IMHO it cannot replace on its own jQuery and the jQuery
plugins used in OFBiz.
I would be very interested to see what you made so far to integrate
htmx to OFBiz.

We really need to seriously investigate now...

Hi All.
Today I was playing around the client side in OFBIZ,
I'm actually not a fan of JS or its frameworks.
I tried making a test to replace it with htmx.
It was very good and easy to integrate with OFBiz and Freemarker.
Please have a look

I am sure it will be a proven technology for OFBiz.
