Been building in HTMX for the last month and I’m loving the new paradigm. This vid did a good job of explaining the shift. https://youtu.be/LRrrxQXWdhI

(Been using preact/react since 2016, angular/jquery before that)

Adding: another reason I like it is the backend does the rendering (like server rendered react)[1] except the language doesn’t matter (agnostic) so that I’m able to use a functional language (F#) to build all my “components”.

[1]: not actually like server rendered react, since srr only happens the first page load.

Thanks for sharing this, I found this paradigm to be highly intuitive. Adding a link to the HTMX docs which also do a great job of explaining: https://htmx.org/
