htmx, ScalaTags and ZIO HTTP - Single-Page Web Applications in Scala

A demonstration of building a single-page application using ScalaTags for server-side rendering, htmx for dynamic updates, and ZIO HTTP.

GitHub: github.com/rockthejvm/scalatags-htmx-demo ZIO course: rockthejvm.com/p/zio This video is a demonstration of a small web application written in Scala, called Neon Pages: a catalogue of contacts where you can add, edit, remove and bulk-edit data with instant feedback and persistence. The application is written in Scala with - ScalaTags with server-side rendering (SSR) - htmx for custom HTML attributes which handle SPA flows - ZIO HTTP for server endpoints - ZIO for effects - Quill for database You can clone the Git repository and edit the application to your heart's desire, and create your own full-blown SPAs with the stack inside. This video discusses the architectural decisions and best practice for writing a similar application.
