htmx 0.0.6 Release

I'm pleased to announce the 0.0.6 release of htmx.

Changes

_hyperscript

With this release comes the release of a new sibling project:

https://hyperscript.org

hyperscript is a scripting language designed to be embedded directly in HTML and inspired by HyperTalk, the programming language of HyperCard.

Breaking Changes

• Custom request/response headers no longer start with the X- prefix, which is no longer recommended
• The X-HTTP-Method-Override is now part of the method-override extension, and AJAX requests use the actual http method specified for requests.
• Extensions that handle swaps must explicitly return an array of elements to process after the swap
• The hx-error-url attribute was removed in favor of hyperscript

Other Changes

• empty verb attributes are now allowed and follow the anchor tag semantics (e.g. <div hx-get></div>)
• nunjuks inline rendering is now supported in the client-side-templates extension
• the new ajax-header extension includes the X-Requested-With header
• bad JSON is now handled more gracefully
• hx-swap="none" will cause no swap to take place https://github.com/bigskysoftware/htmx/issues/89
• hx-trigger now supports a throttle modifier https://github.com/bigskysoftware/htmx/issues/88
• the focused element is preserved if possible after a replacement
• perf improvements for large DOM trees with sparse hx- annotations
• general bug fixes

Enjoy!
