There are some pretty big key differences though. Livewire is pure ajax (at least for now, may change in the future, a rewrite is in the works), Hotwire is mostly websockets. Livewire does DOM diffing in the frontend, Hotwire does it server side (sorta? didn't dig a ton but that's my understanding). Performance characteristics are pretty wildly different depending on the usecase.

With the advent of http3 won't normal ajax requests outperform websockets?
