I used to be really negative on Hotwire/Livewire but I now realize it’s a horses-for-courses kind of thing. Sending partials over the wire is a hypermedia thing, and I just don’t write hypermedia apps nowadays. It was htmx and re-reading RTF’s REST paper that got me to this place: I still don’t think hypermedia is inherently the superior architecture, but it is a legit peer among several, and it’s nice to see it keep evolving, even if slowly.
