alt Hacker NewsI like the idea. DOM morphing is nice.
I've done this previously with morphdom to AJAXify a purely server-driven backoffice system in a company.
I would love something even smaller. No `mu-` attributes (just rely on `id`, `href`, `rel`, `rev` and standard HTML semantics).
There's a nice `resource` attribute in RDFa which makes a lot of sense for these kinds of things: https://www.w3.org/TR/rdfa-lite/#h-resource
Overall, I think old 2015-era microdata like RDFa and this approach would work very well. Instead of reinventing attributes, using a standard.
Not exactly what you’re saying, but a bit closer. With this library you set what css classes on the page are “hot”, it fetches the next page state and replaces that part of the page with the new state: https://github.com/robrohan/diffy
