I’m not new to programming, but I am somewhat new to web development and I’m trying to figure out the most preferred way of taking a standalone header from one html document and adding it to other html documents without code duplication. If possible I want to do this with Javascript so I can learn with more basic tools before expanding further.

I’ve researched this a fair bit, but the advice is a bit confusing since it either seems out of date or possibly not the most secure way of handling things. Is there a preferred way of doing something like this?

    I was looking into Astro and Svelte and those definitely seem interesting. I’ve saved links so I can get into them more in a few weeks when I’m a bit further along with the fundamentals. Thanks!

      Also just throwing this out there: I run a Discord called The Spicy Web that really is about learning and building stuff with the fundamentals, even for old-timers like myself (but all the more for newbies! So much advice out there is about pulling in tons of opinionated tools and dependencies, even when you don’t need them…). At any point if you want to bounce ideas or questions off folks in real-time, check it out!

        Much appreciated, thanks! I’ll save a link to this and have a look! I am definitely a fan of using simple tools, so that definitely appeals to me.

      No problem! Svelte has an awesome Discord community, and we got a Svelte community here too. Feel free to ask me any questions as well
