This plugin is in alpha and its API may change.
Spark is a free plugin for Craft CMS that allows you to create real-time front-ends driven by Twig templates. It aims to replace the need for front-end frameworks such as React, Vue.js and Alpine.js + htmx, and instead lets you manage state and run logic all within your Twig templates.
With Spark, you have the ability to define state and manipulate the DOM in real-time on the front-end, and modify parts of the DOM with templates rendered on the back-end. Use-cases for Spark are:
- Live searching elements
- Loading more elements / Infinite scroll
- Paginating, ordering and filtering lists of elements
- Submitting forms and running actions
- Pretty much anything to do with reactive front-ends
Spark is lightweight, performant and strongly opinionated about embracing hypermedia and removing front-end complexity. It can be used for anything from simple to complex use-cases.
