@bugbytes3923 can you assist on django textfield, making it rich text editor, I used CkEditor5 and creates tables but that tables are overflowing on mobile device, tried customizing it but failed.

Thanks mate!

So solid. Always clear as a bell. Thank you. Do you have a Django From Scratch series? Ideally, creating a CRUD app template. That would be awesome.

[@bugbytes3923]

Thanks! I have some content that's in preparation for Django from Scratch, but I haven't worked on it for a while. I definitely want to do an intro-level course on Django in the future, though.

[@seadude]

@ Awesome, yeah, I’d pay for that! I’m tired of messing with streamlit when wanting to stay in the Python framework for the entire front/backend stack. I’m proficient in Serverless mid/backend but fairly clueless in best practices for PROD Frontends. Let me know how I can assist (serious).

[@AdnanNazirAhmed]

Thanks, very useful.

How do you handle complex frontend state in HTMX? Do you have a video on that?

[@djangodeveloper07]

great video, but for delete an item, no confirmation box ? i don't think so it's a good practice to allow users to delete items on a single click without any warning ? does htmx provide any attribute for that ? second can we add loading/spinner like Deleting..... because on live sites, query can take 1 or 2 seconds to execute.

[@bugbytes3923]

Good point, it's not shown in the video but you can use "hx-confirm" for confirming the delete on the browser. Spinners can also be added - check out the hx-indicator attribute for that.

[@kennyPAGC]

I'm not sure what's the point of the hx trigger header here (which btw I don't agree with this design because I lean for a more clear backend and frontend separation) since it could all be done with the response status code.

[@JunHou-u4j]

why are you so cool man

[@bugbytes3923]

Haha not sure about that... :D Thanks though

[@noob_coder001]

Please make a video working with htmx and using datatables library . In addition use hx-boost="true" with the datatable elements for tag its not working at the same time i got an duplicate datatable wrapper issue . 🥺 Please resolve my issuce man ,. Thanks in advance .

[@codedjango]

In SPA's removing any element from the frontend before the server response is received may cause side-effects if its existence triggers any other event on the frontend...so I think "optimistic updates" are a big "NO" ....I think spinner would give an appropriate message to the user and also not add to the errors in the frontend...but thanks to showcase the optimistic updates anyways..

[@legion_prex3650]

not a big fan either to be honest.

[@Jack-l8d7s]

It’s just about use case. It’s pretty obvious that if an action triggers another event this probably isn’t the right option but for straightforward operations this is great!

[@cagatay518]

Let's call it cosmetic update. 😊
