HTMX is just HTML.

Just look how VueJS got started, it began with sprinkled in html and was marketed as the framework for backend devs, as you were just writing html to render lists/objects etc. And htmx does more then what you're alluding to here, as should be obvious from reading their docs about server-side events, notifications, lazy loading, JS extension api etc
