Minu

Minu is a 4.0 KB HTML fragment loader for server-rendered apps. It adds requests, forms, polling, out-of-band swaps, and SSE without a SPA or a build step.

Install

npm install minu

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/minu@1.6.1/dist/minu.min.js"
        integrity="sha384-bvb7Fc/vjU8Hm+hZrH6DCXG2zwSdtAR52XhVqqXL0xGLeY8xcpKmijAxMAzcFVhP"
        crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
<script>minu.init();</script>

Ten-second example

<div minu-get="/widgets/price"
     minu-trigger="every 5s"
     minu-target="#price"></div>

<div id="price">$0.00</div>

The server returns an HTML fragment. Minu swaps it into the target.

What it does

• GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE
• Targets and eight swap modes
• Forms, values, headers, timeout, confirm, disable, indicator
• Triggers: load, click, submit, every, revealed, intersect, once, changed, delay, throttle, from
• Out-of-band swaps and Minu-Trigger, Minu-Redirect, Minu-Refresh
• SSE with native EventSource
• DOMPurify-backed secure build

What it does not do

Routing/history, morph or diff swaps, WebSockets, or JSON response parsing. Use htmx if you need its extension ecosystem or history support.

The default build is not an XSS boundary. Use minu/secure for untrusted HTML.
