OMG I hate video tutorials 😖

Thanks for the good intentions, but please just write your tutorials and walkthroughs in plain text, it’s sooo much easier to follow.

@bech I’ll do both. And make it free. And there’s nothing you can do to stop me.

💕

@bech PS. On a more serious note, what do you think of the approach here?

(The process in the video is entirely covered in the article but the video exists to add a human element and help those who like to follow along and/or are getting started – so the latter can see general aspects of the workflow that more advanced developers may take for granted and which are out of scope/would unnecessarily bloat the article).

Aral Balkan · Streaming HTMLSorry, your browser doesn't support embedded videos. But that doesn’t mean you can’t watch it! You can download the video and watch it with your favourite video player. Building the Streaming HTML counter example. Estimated reading time: 25 minutes. Kitten has a new experimental workflow for creating web apps called Streaming HTML that I want to introduce you to today. Kitten, uniquely, enables you to build Small Web apps (peer-to-peer web apps).

@niutech Nice. Can you keep streaming HTML once the page has loaded. For my use cases, at least, the first page load being a single load is not so much a bug as a feature but being able to interactively stream updates via Streaming HTML in Kitten is priceless :)

@aral @bech Yes, you can continue streaming HTML using SSE or add streaming on click using HTMZ.

@niutech @bech Nice; good to see folks thinking along the same lines :)
