fixi.js is an experimental, minimalist JavaScript library implementing generalized hypermedia controls via a small set of HTML attributes, events, and properties. It lets you issue HTTP requests and swap response HTML into the DOM declaratively, aiming to be a leaner alternative to htmx.

Use cases

• add partial page updates to a server-rendered site without a build step
• replace htmx with a smaller hypermedia library
• fetch and swap HTML fragments on click or other events
• build hypermedia-driven web apps with plain HTML attributes
• keep frontend JavaScript under a few kilobytes

When to choose

• you want hypermedia controls with minimal size and complexity
• you prefer declarative HTML attributes over writing fetch code
• your app doesn't need htmx's advanced features like history support or request queueing

When to avoid

• you need htmx features like request indicators, CSS transitions, or history support
• you want a mature, battle-tested library for production
• you're building a rich SPA with client-side state management
