Using Django Getting Started

Hi all,

I have started experimenting with django and the other day i also started studing htmx. So i was wandering what is the best approach to allow access to a certain set of endpoints only to htmx?

thx!

You can’t. HTMX issues the same get and post requests as anything else does. (Technically, it’s just another JavaScript framework.)
HTMX does set a header to indicate that a request is being sent by HTMX, but any JavaScript code can set the same header.
