unpoly/unpoly

The missing application layer for HTML

Unpoly expands what links, forms and server-rendered pages can do, while your application stays on the server:

Details   
Add user     
                           
…                               

When the user follows an Unpoly link, the server responds with HTML (a full page is fine), and Unpoly updates only the targeted fragment. Everything outside the fragment stays as it is, including scroll positions and unsaved form input. Every URL keeps working on its own, so you don’t need separate endpoints for fragments.

When attributes aren’t enough, a JavaScript API and compilers let you recompose Unpoly’s behavior and plug in your own code.

Unpoly works with any language or framework. It plays nice with existing code, and gracefully degrades without JavaScript.

This branch tracks the current major version, Unpoly 3.x.
If you’re using Unpoly 2.x, use the 2.x-stable branch.
If you’re using Unpoly 1.x or 0.x, use the 1.x-stable branch.
