I literally only ever hear about htmx from YC. I still don't know what the point of it is, it seems like one of those opinionated programmer things like "I don't use a framework" or "you don't need javascript to make my site work"
HTMX is getting a lot of attention from other communities to, another one I am part of is the Django community, which talks about it a lot.
it's kind of the elm for javascript. vocal enthusiastic fans but no real usage beyond that miniscule enclave.
It's for python programmers who think front-end is an unavoidable evil but wish to avoid it anyway.
Why just Python? I feel excluded as a Go dev
To front-end devs you all look the same
The uncle who wrote the tool is probably a friend of the moderators here. He thinks that changing the texts in the element with a few xhr functions is a great success. I've seen very few guys as weird as this guy.

your sense of humor is as shitty as the tool you made :) you are truly a pathetic creature :)
