As a backend engineer I really like where all of this is going. In many many cases you do not need anything beyond what HTMX provides, and it makes the build and testing process so much simpler, and faster too

This levels concept resonates with me: https://www.lorenstew.art/blog/progressive-complexity-manife...

There are cases where you need more than htmx / datastar, but i like the explicit calling out of when these boundaries occur (e.g. you've exceeded what "islands" can give you), and i like the gravitational pull to lower levels.
