I am not sure what Javascript buys you, but from a point of view of doing a server-side app and having to do the frontend... uh, it adds a lot of complexity.

I am taking a look into htmx. It looks way closer to what html is and it is more than enough for my purpose at least.

lol. I learnt something new today. Thanks for that!
Htmx is what I will use in my next website. More than enough for me as well and the learning curve seems pretty low compared to alternatives.
