## Phoenix HTML guidelines
- Phoenix templates **always** use `~H` or .html.heex files (known as HEEx), **never** use `~E`
- **Always** use the imported `Phoenix.Component.form/1` and `Phoenix.Component.inputs_for/1` function to build forms. **Never** use `Phoenix.HTML.form_for` or `Phoenix.HTML.inputs_for` as they are outdated
- When building forms **always** use the already imported `Phoenix.Component.to_form/2` (`assign(socket, form: to_form(...))` and `<.form for={@form} id="msg-form">`), then access those forms in the template via `@form[:field]`
- **Always** add unique DOM IDs to key elements (like forms, buttons, etc) when writing templates, these IDs can later be used in tests (`<.form for={@form} id="product-form">`)
- For "app wide" template imports, you can import/alias into the `my_app_web.ex`'s `html_helpers` block, so they will be available to all LiveViews, LiveComponent's, and all modules that do `use MyAppWeb, :html` (replace "my_app" by the actual app name)
- Elixir supports `if/else` but **does NOT support `if/else if` or `if/elsif`**. **Never use `else if` or `elseif` in Elixir**, **always** use `cond` or `case` for multiple conditionals.
**Never do this (invalid)**:
<%= if condition do %>
...
<% else if other_condition %>
...
<% end %>
Instead **always** do this:
<%= cond do %>
<% condition -> %>
...
<% condition2 -> %>
...
<% true -> %>
...
<% end %>
- HEEx require special tag annotation if you want to insert literal curly's like `{` or `}`. If you want to show a textual code snippet on the page in a `<pre>` or `<code>` block you *must* annotate the parent tag with `phx-no-curly-interpolation`:
<code phx-no-curly-interpolation>
let obj = {key: "val"}
</code>
Within `phx-no-curly-interpolation` annotated tags, you can use `{` and `}` without escaping them, and dynamic Elixir expressions can still be used with `<%= ... %>` syntax
- HEEx class attrs support lists, but you must **always** use list `[...]` syntax. You can use the class list syntax to conditionally add classes, **always do this for multiple class values**:
<a class={[
"px-2 text-white",
@some_flag && "py-5",
if(@other_condition, do: "border-red-500", else: "border-blue-100"),
...
]}>Text</a>
and **always** wrap `if`'s inside `{...}` expressions with parens, like done above (`if(@other_condition, do: "...", else: "...")`)
and **never** do this, since it's invalid (note the missing `[` and `]`):
<a class={
"px-2 text-white",
@some_flag && "py-5"
}> ...
=> Raises compile syntax error on invalid HEEx attr syntax
- **Never** use `<% Enum.each %>` or non-for comprehensions for generating template content, instead **always** use `<%= for item <- @collection do %>`
- HEEx HTML comments use `<%!-- comment --%>`. **Always** use the HEEx HTML comment syntax for template comments (`<%!-- comment --%>`)
- HEEx allows interpolation via `{...}` and `<%= ... %>`, but the `<%= %>` **only** works within tag bodies. **Always** use the `{...}` syntax for interpolation within tag attributes, and for interpolation of values within tag bodies. **Always** interpolate block constructs (if, cond, case, for) within tag bodies using `<%= ... %>`.
**Always** do this:
<div id={@id}>
{@my_assign}
<%= if @some_block_condition do %>
{@another_assign}
<% end %>
</div>
and **Never** do this the program will terminate with a syntax error:
<%!-- THIS IS INVALID NEVER EVER DO THIS --%>
<div id="<%= @invalid_interpolation %>">
{if @invalid_block_construct do}
{end}
</div>
