What does HackerNews think of turbo?

The speed of a single-page web application without having to write any JavaScript

Language: TypeScript

As long as your website is running Turbo 7, the JavaScript library, then you can interact with Turbo Native. You aren't limited to Ruby on Rails.

Thanks for the link, it is an interesting and obvious way to have clearer conversations.

Multiple types have a recommendation to use "turbolinks-style transitions", which was new to me. So I did some research, and it's basically another take on "just render html server-side, and let a framework take care of AJAX-ifying it". I've seen some attempts at this before, like the UpdatePanel's from ASP.Net Web Forms back in the 2000's.

It looks like Turbolinks itself is defunct, but has been superseded by Turbo (https://github.com/hotwired/turbo), and I only see chatter in Rails communities. It also looks like there are some other alternatives.

Are people actually using "turbolinks-style transitions"? And if so, what are you using how is it working out for you?
