A #LowJS approach is an appealing alternative to the ever-increasing complexity being used to build web applications (sardonically named “Single Page Apps”).
A number of interesting frontend LowJS toolkits have emerged including HTMX and Basecamp’s Hotwire.
In particular, Hotwire is an alternative approach to building modern, dynamic, accessible, responsive web applications without using much JavaScript by sending HTML (instead of JSON or XML) over the wire.
To show what’s possible, we’ll get technical and dive into a full-blown, real-world application which uses Hotwire with Server-Sent Events (SSE) generated by a reactive Spring WebFlux backend, Thymeleaf templates, and Kotlin Coroutines and Flows for a brand new approach to reactive streams.
