HTMX is excellent. We made it a long way at Convictional[1] with HTMX + AlpineJS, but the eventual transition of our product into lots of live collaborative surfaces had us feeling like we had pushed the envelope as far as we could under modern startup constraints. Unfortunately, frontier models have really hurt development with budding tech that doesn't have the training data presence of things like React.

https://data-star.dev is what you were yearning for, friend. It is more powerful, faster and smaller than htmx and alpine combined, and has all sorts of capabilities specifically for multi-player live reactivity.

Discovered data-star a little around that time, maybe a little after HTMX. I'll probably dabble with personal projects, but no stomach for the business to try something in that vein again. "Nobody ever got fired for picking ~SAP~ React" and all that.
