    I’m good with my Vue, thanks. I hate React though. I can see htmx simplifying some things and being adopted by front-end frameworks. The same way improvements in HTML and CSS have been adopted.

      Fellow Vue enjoyer! I love Vue, it’s so friendly. Maintaining a complex React app feels like getting dragged behind a truck down a one way road.

      (Did you like my two way data binding joke there?)

        When you say “and”, do you mean together?

        I love Vue, first time I’ve heard of AlpineJS. From my quick searching, they seem pretty similar. What advantages does one have over the other? Thanks :)

          Ah, sorry, that was a bit confusing on my part. I use them entirely separate. Here are some real world examples:

          Vue: new projects that will require multiple components, state management, etc.

          AlpineJS: when I have a tiny project/demo that needs reactivity, or if I have an existing HTML setup that needs state management and reactivity bolted on after the fact (like an old site or something like that).
