After hearing about it for years, and it apparently being popular in the Django community, I tried htmx for the first time just this morning on a very simple task in an admin interface.
It's easy to put unobtrusively in place, fun to play with, and it worked. Reminded me of using jQuery for the first time. Would I use it for a complex and involved project? Initial impressions suggest probably not.
