🥳 New Kitten Release
You can now use the simple `on:` prefix instead of `hx-on:htmx:` to define inline event handlers for HTMX events¹.
Also, there are three new event shorthands for responding to your Kitten page’s connection lifecycle:
• on:connecting
• on:connect
• on:disconnect
(These expand during render to `hx-on:htmx:ws-connecting.window`, `hx-on:htmx:ws-open.window`, and `hx-on:htmx:ws-close.window`, respectively.)
These are useful when using Kitten’s Streaming HTML workflow.

Another quick release, this one adds Alpine.js support for shorthand event handlers.
Just add a `@` before your shorthand event handler names to have them expanded as inline Alpine.js event handlers.
e.g., `on:connect` → `@on:connect`
Enjoy!
