HTMX + ASPNET Core Razor = magic. ✨

HTMX + ASPNET Core Razor = magic. ✨

But HyperScript? Not so much. 😅

As a developer, I gave HyperScript a try for client-side interactions. I really wanted to love it—especially since it’s from the same creator as HTMX. But every time I used it, I spent way too much time trying to get the syntax right.

Maybe HyperScript just isn’t logical for developers. Or maybe it’s just me. 🤷‍♂️

Then I tried Alpine.js. It clicked immediately. The syntax made sense, and it worked right away. No more headaches, no more Googling for every little thing.

Now, my HTMX + ASPNET Core Razor + Alpine.js stack feels seamless and productive.

What’s your go-to stack for handling client-side interactions? Have you tried Alpine.js or HyperScript?
