I think Alpine is cool, but it didn't really stick with the team. I think that's because we were still writing our components in LiveView and sprinkling in Alpine. A big unlock with LiveSvelte was getting to move so much into `.svelte` files, but not converting the whole thing to a SPA. Working in a `.svelte` file gives you a lot of niceties that an Alpine-decorated LiveView component won't (prettier, intellisense, etc).
This approach could totally work with other paradigms, like Alpine and HTMX. I think the key is using LiveView as a backend-for-frontend, so writing all your components in `.htmx` files or whatever.
