With Alpine.js embracing the same philosophy as TailwindCSS it’s time to come up with some new stack names, eg.
Reactive Laravel apps with the
TALL stack by @stauffermatt or Back to basics with the HTML-driven SHATstack by @hugo__df.
There’s a lot of new examples in the Alpine.js/TailwindCSS space:
- Login Show/Hide Password by @framansi
- Edit in place text input by @brbcoding
- A newsletter form by @mithicher
Some non-TailwindCSS examples are also out there:
- An auto-updating copyright component by @Kotfire.
- my personal favourite: AlpineJS Screaming Balls by @unlikenesses.
