+# 2. Adopt Templ for UI components
+
+Date: 2024-08-02
+
+## Status
+
+Accepted
+
+## Context
+
+We have used Golang's native HTML templating in all our microfrontends to date, but there are some frustrations. The
+Handlebars syntax does allow for some conditional logic and template composition, but it is incomplete. Templates accept
+variables but only as an empty interface, so there is no type safety or intellisense, so a simple misspelled variable 
+will result in runtime errors. They are also hard to test, meaning our Cypress tests have become page-level component 
+tests, rather than system-level end-to-end tests.
+
+## Decision
+
+[Templ](https://templ.guide/) is a widely adopted HTML component generator where components are described as Go functions.
+The syntax uses valid HTML, meaning converting our existing designs and templates should be fairly straight-forward, but
+allows full use of everything Go has to offer, including typed function parameters. As components are functions, they can
+be passed to other components as function parameters. The `.templ` are then transpiled to `.go` files in a compile step,
+and then can be imported into other packages.
+
+This also allows for a better separation of state. Previously, we have run into issues where templates used the same structs
+as were used for the API, which coupled the two use cases and made it hard to modify (not to mention being a common cause
+of runtime errors). With Templ, we can keep all view state in the `components` package, with the separation enforced by
+Go not allowing circular dependencies between packages.
+
+## Consequences
+
+Adopting any library outside of the standard library brings risk. However, Templ is very widely adopted, especially when
+paired with HTMX, and in active development. It is also another technology to learn, though is arguably easier to understand
+in regard to component composition.
