HX-Boosted ~ htmx

The HX-Boosted request header is set to true when the request comes from a boosted element via hx-boost.

Boosted elements are regular links and forms that htmx intercepts to enhance.

Example

Detect boosted navigation.


if request.headers.get('HX-Boosted') == 'true':
    # Boosted requests get the full layout
    return render_template('page.html')
else:
    # Regular htmx requests get a fragment
    return render_template('fragment.html')
