Started some time ago… Mostly involved fighting with errors. Setting it up following the tutorials given in the web (as in Phoenix LiveView + Alpine ones) don’t apply since I need to do an Alping.start()
before the app (which was mentioned in their docs Migrating from V2 section
. And npm install alpinejs
doesn’t seem to work (They DID mention building from source with npm build...
but I felt like following common sense at first try). Alpine 2.0 works though but I’m more interested in the cutting edge, after all, it’s a pet project and free learning.
Googling for the error messages I had “Webpack … appropriate loader… something…” sent me to Github discussions that led to 404. I thought that sucked. Especially when the discussions surrounding those links seemed helpful and results of those discussions weren’t documented any place else.
Anyways, it’s barely been ~30 minutes or so, I’d not start ranting right now. Though it led me to some really interesting frameworks like Stimulus and Unpoly.
