htmx enhances HTML with dynamic behavior using attributes like hx-get, letting the server drive updates via HTML fragments. It feels like a modern VB6: fast to prototype, pragmatic, and server-centric.

XMLUI takes a more structured approach: apps are built from declarative XML components with spreadsheet-like reactivity and client-side data binding. It’s closer to composing interfaces from reusable parts than wiring up behaviors.

I don't see a newbie-friendly tutorial, just one for established developers. I think a progressive, step-by-step tutorial is needed, especially one that begins from small pieces to larger pieces.
