===========================================================
        Build with LUA, LUASOCKET, HTMX & _HYPERSCRIPT

HTMX TodoMVC	Link
Go, Templ	🌄
Rust, Astra, Maud	🌠
ExpressJS, Typescript, React	✈️
AdonisJS, Typescript, React	🎡
Lua, Luasocket	⛵

E2E Testing

app.cy.js.mp4

Emulating the functionalities of modern frameworks which is base on React TodoMVC. This demonstration serves to showcase that HTMX, when paired with _hyperscript, can replicate if not all the behaviors typically associated with most modern client framework with minimum needs to write javascript.
