I really want to make a comment like "What version of CICS were you using that it reminded you of HTMX?" but no matter how I write it, it comes out with me sounding like a jerk. So I'm making the comment and hanging a lantern on it. My experience w/ CICS was so down in the weeds I never thought much of it's high-level architecture.
I am somewhat amused that people think the latest / greatest technology is super-new. And I think you hit on that... HTMX definitely "rhymes" with some bits of old-tech. When I was at Amazon some of our devs were floundering trying to figure out how to estimate capacity requirements for some random app they were working on. So I brought in my System 370 Capacity Planning Guide from 1978 and it made a surprisingly decent high-level introduction to how to think about planning in the cloud.
