We are in the middle of migrating from our monster react application into server rendered pages (with jinja2). The velocity at which we are able to ship and the reduction of complexity has been great so far.

Managing client side state for simple things like (is the dropdown open/closed), listening to keyboard events and such can be done with something like alpine-js [1] without all the baggage that something like react brings.

It appears this is already the trend with JS frameworks too - with server side rendering being the new norm.

I have not prototyped anything but I think that alpine-js + htmx can go long way for such apps. Especially, this is pretty interesting idea [0]

React... might be good but I am too weak to handle all that comes with it.
