HTMX is quite easy to code. Your prompt sounds rather generic, I mean, you can just serve 10 days of weather forecasts without any interaction whatsoever.

It isn't clear what you were asking ChatGPT to provide, therefore not surprised it didn't come up with the exact answer you expected. I'd suggest learning HTMX by reading the docs, the majority is just a single page.

ChatGPT made it very clear it understood exactly what I wanted, short of writing the code. The steps it offered were long, and far from generic. So. Why no code? It offers code for other langs all the time, even unprompted.

It was like...if you've ever been mansplained before, when you know how to code something, but are asking a specific question that interests you, related to the process of having a service do that part for you--and someone comes along like, "well, it's easy to code that yourself!"

Not sure if you've experienced that before but it's very similar.

I don't really use ChatGPT but regardless, it seems strange to evaluate the merits of a JS library based upon ChatGPT's prowess with it. Your time would be far better spent, I think, by reviewing the docs yourself and building a basic site.
