Yes, htmx does some more stuff in the backend, like rendering partials. But it actually gets rid of quite a lot too–it allows using a single router and a single auth middleware in the entire app. And even the rendering stuff is simplified compared to what you'd do in a SPA

I've been doing something like this with htmx and can confirm the devex is actually great especially with a fast compile-restart cycle. The unexpected win comes from the abstraction power of just being able to use backend language to write components. One slightly subtle technique: forcing a page-

Help users adopt passkeys more seamlessly  |  Identity  |  Chrome for Developers Automatically create passkeys for users that already have a password saved in their password manager

So far we have ONE example (Amazon) that pops up a passkey creation UI without explicit informed consent. And in my opinion even this workflow will be a thing of the past once Conditional Create is more widely supported developer.chrome.com/docs/identit...

We already know that passkeys are not designed for people using borrowed/temporary devices. You wouldn't set up a passkey in a shared browser at the public library. Under these assumptions it's perfectly reasonable for Amazon to trigger the passkey UI

FaceID doesn't work if your eyes are closed. Can they physically force you to open your eyes? Is use of force allowed to unlock a device?

'But what if I don't want to use passkeys'

Forget about passwords. They're an insecure historical artifact. Passwords are like HTTP. We needed to move forward to HTTPS, and now we need to move forward to passkeys.

Sorry but this is such a niche scenario it can hardly convince anyone that it would be a widespread problem. I have to be using my friend's device so much that I get tired of the passkey prompt. At that point why don't I just ask my friend to set up my own account on this device?
