Gotcha. I may have to give HTMX a try again. Though, I worked on a HAL-based, full RESTful service back in 2016 and I'm not sure how eager I am to go back.

REST was ok for the read-side of things, but for writing I find RPC/commands to be better than PUT/PATCH. Combine that with the lack of framework for HATEOAS made full REST APIs cumbersome at the time, though things may be different now.
