This project is deeply inspired by the principles of hypermedia-driven application architecture, as well as a broader philosophy of simplicity and minimalism in web development.
In particular, we acknowledge the influence of:
- 37signals through Hotwire Turbo
for demonstrating how modern web applications can be built by embracing server-rendered HTML, reducing reliance on heavy client-side frameworks, and prioritizing clarity, performance, and long-term maintainability. Their work reflects a strong commitment to minimalism and pragmatic software design.
- Carson Gross through HTMX
for revitalizing interest in hypermedia as a powerful and sufficient foundation for interactivity on the web, encouraging a declarative, HTML-first approach that aligns closely with the original design of the web.
Their ideas and contributions have significantly influenced the design and philosophy of this library.
