I appreciate the suggestion. Not sure I am a fan of this implementation though. It looks near identical to the HTMX JS API that is already backed into HTMX. Most of the annoyances I dealt with were around conditional logic based on validation.

After enough of the HTMX JS API, I figured, "What is HTMX even buying me at this point?" Even if plain JS is more verbose, that verbosity comes with far less opinions and constraints.

if you are using the htmx javascript API extensively rather than the attributes, you are not using htmx as it was intended
