Say goodbye to bloated frontends and client-side chaos. In this workshop, you'll discover how htmx and ASP.NET Core enable you to build fast, modern, and interactive web apps without relying on a full SPA framework. Through hands-on labs and real-world examples, you’ll learn to enhance Razor Pages and MVC with htmx-powered features such as real-time validation, partial updates, dynamic forms, and smooth UX patterns, all while keeping the logic on the server where it belongs. This is not just a tooling demo; it’s a new mindset for building user interfaces: one that prioritizes simplicity, performance, and developer happiness.

• How to use htmx to add dynamic behaviors without writing JavaScript
• Integrating htmx with ASP.NET Core Razor Pages or MVC
• Building interactive forms, live search, and modal dialogs

• Designing real-world UI flows with server-rendered interactivity
Who Should Attend:
• ASP.NET Core developers looking to build richer UIs without switching to React or Blazor
• JavaScript-fatigued engineers who want simplicity without losing interactivity
• Architects and technical leads exploring modern UI strategies with less overhead
