It's specifically built for Rails, so yeah, it definitely assumes full-stack control.

And there are definitely applications I would prefer to write as an SPA over the Hotwire approach. But given that the vast majority of websites are just a series of simple forms, I prefer this approach over the costs you incur from building an entire complex SPA.

While it works with Rails... some of the parts are just JavaScript and will work with any underlying platform.
