django-htmx-todo-list

Quick example of a todo list application using Django and HTMX

Background

Modified & expanded from https://github.com/jaredlockhart/django-htmx-todo/

This project lets you build todo lists. It demonstrates functionality with django and HTMX, including use of modal forms, adding multiple forms to a list (an alternative to traditional django formsets), and deleting items from a list (or an entire list).

The original project used class-based Django views. That has been improved to use function-based views (see Django Views — The Right Way to read why FBV is often the better approach!)

This project is very basic. It does not make use of authorization or other common important concerns. The focus is 100% on demonstrating some Django & HTMX concepts.
