Personal life
The last couple of weeks have been pretty boring; not much has happened. I'm starting to get a bit fed up with some unresolved matters.
I finished "Gone" and, since I don't have a real alternative, I started "Hunger" from the same series. It's easy to read but boring—perfect for bedtime.
I'm doing more gardening; I enjoy doing something with my hands other than pressing keys on a keyboard. It makes me feel real.
Code
In my free time, I'm working on an RSS-to-Mastodon project with Babashka to automatically toot my posts to Functional Cafe.
I'm searching for an alternative to Vue to use with the Python project I'm working on. HTMX and Datastar sound promising, but the fact that you have to send HTML over WebSockets or Server-Sent Events (SSE) feels off to me… Applications should send and receive data, not fragments of HTML (which is data, I know).
I've always been told to decouple software parts to achieve maximum flexibility.
I probably don't yet understand which kinds of applications these frameworks are best suited for.
