You're a Luddite. I don't actually believe that, but you were very clear in your instructions.

It's faster to load a designobo project view, with 7 iframes, than to start a electron app. The entire client side js, including datastar, is 30kb gzipped!! youtu.be/I1u9f9X8h-g?...

You make assumptions about the framework from one example instead of actual reading the docs. If you don't see the issue then I'm at a loss

I have no interest convincing a bad actor. You didn't even fucking try or can't read demo.instabooks.io/accounts.

Try Instabooks — your books or a demo company
Connect your QuickBooks Online account and work on your own books, or open the demo company — no login required.

Nope, is a product. You want an example of what it looks like to use datastar in production in an actual app then there you go.

Yes totally don't engage with the actual ideas instead base all assumptions on someone's llm generated app. Truly you are a dev for the current age.

Datastar isn't about no client side state. We have for example the fastest signals library for when you need fine grain reactivity. It's about putting state in the right place.

data-star.dev/examples/roc... is like people can't be bothered to read docs anymore. Extremely frustrating. You put state in the right place, most of the time that means on the server.

That's a design decision... Datastar has data-indicator for instant feedback. We also have the fastest signals library known right now

I literally wrote Datastar because this kind of option is only available in data-* attributes if you want a spec compliant way to do this. Look at what we've been able to do given the limitations of that spec. Please reach out if you want a whole lot of old man ranting at clouds www.data-star.dev
