Datastar The hypermedia framework.

I literally wrote Datastar because this kind of option is only available in data-* attributes if you want a spec compliant way to do this. Look at what we've been able to do given the limitations of that spec. Please reach out if you want a whole lot of old man ranting at clouds www.data-star.dev

With #brotli over SSE, the window size is everything. If your window is thrashing (too small), you can use 100%+ more CPU.

This also applies to compression. So you can use brotli 3 rather than 4 (recommend normally) have almost the same compression and be 40-50% faster.

Great talk, glad to be on! Can't wait for the next time!

Using scroll snap events - CSS: Cascading Style Sheets | MDN The CSS scroll snap module defines two scroll snap events: scrollsnapchanging and scrollsnapchange. These enable running JavaScript in response to the browser determining that new scroll snap targets are pending and selected, respectively.

Using CSS Scroll Snap Events yet? 📜

Triggering JS events whenever snapping occurs can allow you to,
🖲️ Track the scroll position
🔱 Trigger animations
💅 Update UI elements
🍬 Provide feedback

Start creating polished and fluid interactions ✨

Dot All 2025 Recap Dot All 2025 was as invigorating and lively as the city it was held in: Lisbon. I gave a talk entitled ​“Real-time Collaboration” in which I introduced…

Dot All 2025 was a wonderful event (big thanks to @leahstephenson.bsky.social and the entire @craftcms.com crew)!!
In case you missed it, here’s my recap.

Blinksy just learned to redraw itself on Checkboxes when things get out of sync.

It has achieved sentience.

I am now obsolete.

Shop Official not-a-cult shop.

Going back to fundamentals and building a completely custom merch store using Datastar and Go has been extremely gratifying.

Datastar The hypermedia framework.

y'all might be interested in our approach. data-star.dev
Life get a lot easier when you put state in the right place and keep things declarative.

ui = fn(state) done right If "ui = fn(state)" has ever resonated with you as a frontend developer you owe it to yourself to consider we as an industry have been going about it all wrong for years. Likely your state already lives on the backend and by syncing it to the frontend to render UI we're adding measurable amounts of unnecessary complexity. If you're to radically simplify if you development environments and production deployments then read on…

Wrote some thoughts about pure UI/ui = fn(state) after spending some time with http://data-star.dev If you've been feeling modern frontend dev has felt overly complex and the juice isn't worth the squeeze then check this out.

Datastar demos have started cross-pollinating. Soon they’ll form a hive mind and ship the next release themselves.

Woke up to 2 articles on hackernews frontpage about Datastar... sure the comments will be accurate, measured, and thoughtful! This is the Internet after all!

Hypermedia is production of state. If you think that's trolling this is the wrong career for you

You must be pretty new to what the concept of hypermedia is. Welcome! Lots to learn!
