1000% this. I actually am using htmx at ${JOB} and this is essentially the only downside to htmx. I want to know which template partial is getting swapped. My IDE doesn't know. I need to track countless html ids to know what will be swapped where... how? It hasn't been a big deal because I alone write the frontend code so I have all my hacks to navigate and my intimate knowledge of the code, but if we need more devs on the frontend, or if the frontend drastically grows feature wise, i will need to tackle this issue post haste. I think template partials could help, but then we also would end up with giant template files and that would also be annoying.

How does it feel to be one of 3 HTMX related jobs in the universe (according to the comments in this thread)? heh.
