Hey everyone! I just released v1.0.0 of gomponents last week. It's an HTML component builder in pure Go, with a DSL-like HTML syntax. It's been 4 years in the making, and makes it really easy to build HTML in your web apps.

are event handlers possible? neither the Github repo nor the linked page showed an example of a button or form submission.

It looks like this is focused on server rendering HTML, no client-side runtime or anything like that.

I don't see any used of a `Script()` function or similar in the example apps, though you could always chunk some JS in a public directory and link it in the HTML.

They do have a starter example that uses HTMX. That'd be my go-to as well for a tool that's sticking with server rendering HTML.

Yep, this exactly. And the starter kit mentioned is here, for anyone curious: https://github.com/maragudk/gomponents-starter-kit
