Sprinkle of vanilla JS. No server-side rendering. |\n| **[`hono-jsx-starter`](https://www.val.town/x/templates/hono-jsx-starter)** *(you're here)* | Dynamic server-rendered HTML with JSX. API routes. No React, no SPA. |\n| [`react-hono-starter`](https://www.val.town/x/templates/react-hono-starter) | Client-side React SPA with a Hono API backend. |\n\n## What's here\n\n```\nindex.tsx Hono app, Layout, routes\npublic/\n favicon.svg Static asset\n counter.ts Tiny client-side script\n```\n\nThe whole app fits in one file. As you grow it, the natural next moves are:\n\n- Pull `Layout` into its own `.tsx` file once you have 3+ pages.\n- Split routes with `app.route(\"/api\", api)` if `/api/*` grows.\n- Add more files under `public/` — they're served by a single\n `app.get(\"/public/*\", ...)` route.\n\n## Patterns worth knowing\n\n**JSX pragma.** Every `.tsx` file that uses JSX needs this at the top:\n\n```tsx\n/** @jsxImportSource npm:hono@4/jsx */\n```\n\n**Server state.** The counter on `/` is `let count = 0` at module scope. It\nlives in memory on the Val Town server and survives across requests — but resets\nwhenever the val restarts (deploys, idle timeouts, etc.). For persistent state,\nswap it for [`std/sqlite`](https://www.val.town/x/std/sqlite) or\n[`std/blob`](https://www.val.town/x/std/blob).\n\n**API routes.** The `Increment` button POSTs to `/api/increment`, which returns\nJSON. Mix server-rendered pages and JSON endpoints in the same Hono app:\n\n```ts\napp.post(\"/api/increment\", (c) => c.json({ count: ++count }));\n```\n\n**Static files.** `serveFile` reads the file by path and serves it with the\nright content-type. `.ts` files are transpiled to JS on request by Val Town — so\nyou can write `public/counter.ts` and reference it as\n`
