I don't like htmx. Compared to component-based approaches, its template / DOM / HTTP-fragment contracts are harder to share, type-check, version, and compose.

I don't like htmx. Compared to component-based approaches, its template / DOM / HTTP-fragment contracts are harder to share, type-check, version, and compose. Application behavior is distributed among: - Markup attributes and DOM structure - HTTP endpoints that return fragments rather than whole documents - Swap rules and event hooks - Form / query-string / hidden-field state - Any supplemental JavaScript for widgets and client-only behavior IME, htmx doesn't remove complexity, it just relocates it.
