Also, on another note I think HTMX has successfully positioned itself as a meme, for better or worse. I have tried using it on a few side projects and I do like the simplicity of it, but is there a goal of it being credible software, or just something the creators are having fun with?
It's definitely a real, credible project. I'd played with HTMX a couple years ago when it was first announced. It was only recently that the author began using memes on Twitter and attained a large following from that.
