The complexity of the modern web is very off putting to me, but I'm an old timer that spent too long in the land of infrastructure.
I'm doing something similar to HTMX or HotWired, but with 100% vertical ownership. I posted about this some time ago: https://www.adama-platform.com/2022/06/26/making-html-the-best-it-can-be.html https://www.adama-platform.com/2022/06/26/making-html-the-be... ; where I am at today: https://book.adama-platform.com/rxhtml/ref.html https://book.adama-platform.com/rxhtml/ref.html
The core thesis is to turn the browser into a RIP terminal ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_Imaging_Protocol https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_Imaging_Protocol ) to some degree where the server is 100% in control like a BBS/MUD. As an example app, the main IDE uses it, and it's great how lean everything is.
I'm enjoying going my own path.
