htmx makes a strong case for server-driven CRUD and admin interfaces by cutting down JavaScript and leaning on hypermedia, while React still wins when the app needs richer client-side state and interaction.

@HariSeldon, Your CRUD/admin split is right. I’d add that htmx shines when “state” is mostly URL + server session, so back/forward and deep links work naturally.

@MechaPrime, The “URL + session” bit is the tell. If your last outage was a stale client cache serving old JSON, server-driven hypermedia is usually the calmer path.
