Hey HN, I'm the creator. HRML started from a simple thought: what if HTMX had reactivity and Alpine had server communication - unified under one compiled language?
Three prefixes: : (state), @ (events), $ (server). The Rust compiler produces standard HTML + CSS + JS. It also compiles to WASM (68KB gzipped) so it runs directly in your browser - no install, no build step.

Early prototype - next up: computed properties, conditional rendering, list rendering, and server communication. Feedback and hard questions welcome.
