Sorry if I came across as dismissive, htmx is a much needed counterpoint to React's dominance and a great contribution to the industry.
And I hope its core idea (Ajax from HTML with results loading inside a target element) will be adopted as a Web standard.
- recursivedoubts 3y agonot at all, i understand there are going to be different takes on what the right balance of functionality & configuration are and htmx has been hamstrung to an extent by being IE compatible, which, coupled w/ my commitment to backwards compatibility, means some obvious things are off the table (e.g. using fetch()) i don't begrudge other people having differing opinions on this stuff and agree w/the spirit of your original comment: HTML should have a native mechanism for doing what htmx does. hopefully htmx (and other takes on the idea) contribute to that future.
