<h2><a id="why" href="#why">#</a> Why?</h2>
<ol>
<li>
Ask a late-20s software engineer "why did you start coding?" - a non-trivial number will say "I was trying to make my
Tumblr look cool".
<br />
If they're a bit older, they might say Myspace. Older still, Geocities.
<br />
I feel like that there's a latent nostalgia for an earlier internet, where people had their own little space that
they could express themselves creatively.
<br />
Thus, HTML in Hyde is an attempt to, in the <a href="https://html.energy/goals.html">
words of HTML Energy</a>, <q>show people that the web is still alive [and] to actively make the web more human and handmade.</q>.
</li>
<li>
I am fascinated by online Minecraft communites. A record of their in-game "physical" activities are permanently encoded into a <code>map_<#>.dat</code>, and textual communications into chat <code>.log</code> files.
These communities, such as <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2b2t">2b2t</a>, develop rich histories and cultures around <i>digital</i> places.
I would like to build an online community tied to a <i>physical</i> place, such that the community's activities straddle the physical place (the park itself) and its digital place (its website).
</li>
<li>
I think HTML is a good hypertext format. I think people should be able to write semantic HTML fluently and do so frequently over <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markdown">lesser</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LaTeX">formats</a>.
I celebrate the efforts of hypertext practioners to <a href="https://hypermedia.systems/">document</a> and <a href="https://alexanderpetros.com/triptych/">advance</a> the platform.

<h4>Hosting</h4>
<ul class="breathe">
<li>
<a href="https://pages.github.com/">GitHub Pages</a>
<br />GitHub Pages lets you host static websites directly from a canonical <code>username/username.github.io</code> repo,
or any other project repo. For example, my <a
href="https://github.com/MaxwellBo/maxwellbo.github.io">MaxwellBo/maxwellbo.github.io</a> repo maps to <a
href="https://maxbo.me">maxbo.me</a>, while <a href="https://github.com/MaxwellBo/cursors">MaxwellBo/cursors</a>
maps to <a href="https://maxbo.me/cursors">maxbo.me/cursors</a>.
</li>
<li>
<a href="https://www.val.town/">
Val Town
</a>
<br />
<blockquote>
If GitHub Gists could run. And AWS Lambda was fun. Val Town is a social website to write and deploy TypeScript.
Build APIs and schedule functions from your browser.
</blockquote>
Val Town goes crazy. You can <a href="https://docs.val.town/types/http/jsx/">trivially server-side render dynamic HTML</a>
hydrated from the <a href="https://docs.val.town/std/sqlite/usage/">built in SQLite DB</a> or <a href="https://docs.val.town/std/blob/">blob store</a>.
It has an inbuilt <a href="https://docs.val.town/std/openai/">OpenAI API client</a>. It makes dealing with <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Guides/CORS">CORS</a>
from <a href="https://docs.val.town/std/fetch/">other sites</a> and configuring <a href="https://docs.val.town/troubleshooting/cors/">your own</a> easy. It supports <a href="https://blog.val.town/blog/http-streaming/">HTTP Streaming and Server-Sent Events</a> out-of-the-box (!).
<br />
I used Val Town to power the RSVP forms, with the code hosted at <a
href="https://www.val.town/v/mbo/htmlinhydeRSVPs">val.town/v/mbo/htmlinhydeRSVPs</a> and <a href="https://www.val.town/v/mbo/html_in_hyde_1">https://www.val.town/v/mbo/html_in_hyde_1</a>.
</li>
</ul>
<h4>HTML extensions</h4>
<ul class="breathe">
<li>
<a href="https://htmx.org/docs/">htmx</a>, <a href="https://leanrada.com/htmz/">htmz</a>, or <a href="https://github.com/bigskysoftware/fixi">fixi</a>
<blockquote>
htmx is a library that allows you to access modern browser features directly from HTML, rather than using javascript.
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
htmz is a minimalist HTML microframework for creating interactive and modular web user interfaces with the familiar simplicity of plain HTML.
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
fixi.js is an experimental, minimalist implementation of generalized hypermedia controls
</blockquote>
All 3 of these make it much easier to sprinkle in interactivity to a static HTML page.
<br />
They both offer the same primitive, <a href="https://htmx.org/docs/#swapping"><i>swapping</i></a>, where a HTML
response replaces an existing page element.
<br />
Swapping can get you pretty far, and pairs well with val.town HTML responses.
<br />

<blockquote>

This goes crazy. You can just add import a script and add an attribute like <code>can-move</code> to any element:
<pre>
<code class="echo"><script
type="module"
src="https://unpkg.com/playhtml@latest/dist/init.es.js">
</script>
<div id="couch" can-move style="font-size: 80px">🛋</div></code>
</pre>
and you can click and drag it around and it will get synced!
<script
type="module"
src="https://unpkg.com/playhtml@latest/dist/init.es.js"
></script>
<div id="couch" can-move style="font-size: 80px">🛋</div>

playhtml wraps <a href="https://www.partykit.io/">PartyKit</a> which might be a better option if playhtml is insufficient.

I thought it might be worth mentioning about how to do HTML includes using
an <code><iframe></code>:
<pre style="overflow: scroll;">
<code class="echo"><iframe
src="/target.html"
onload="this.before((this.contentDocument.body||this.contentDocument).children[0]);this.remove()">

For quick and dirty rendering of simple dynamic content, you may not need the complexity of a templating language like Handlebars or a PHP backend.
[...]
You can write this directly in HTML—without IDs, classes, or querySelectors in your JS! Thanks to the <code>document.currentScript</code> property, we can refer to the currently running <code><script></code> element directly and go from there.

Well you might need some way of importing JS libraries, right?
<br />
With the services linked above, you can import libraries directly from a CDN,
in a <a
href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guide/Modules#applying_the_module_to_your_html">module
script</a>,
using <a
href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Statements/import"><code>import</code>
syntax</a>. As an example:
<br />
<pre style="overflow: scroll;">
<code class="echo"><script type="module">
import confetti from "https://esm.sh/canvas-confetti@1.6.0"
window.confetti = () => confetti.create(document.getElementById('confetti'))()
</script>
<button onclick="confetti()">🎉</button>
<canvas id="confetti" style="border: 1px solid #006400;"></canvas>
</code>
</pre>
<script type="module">
import confetti from "https://esm.sh/canvas-confetti@1.6.0"
window.confetti = () => confetti.create(document.getElementById('confetti'))()
</script>
<button onclick="confetti()">🎉</button>
<canvas id="confetti" style="border: 1px solid #006400"></canvas>
