Its funny, after considering Blazor serverside and WASM, I also opted for HTMX + Alpine.js (when needed) + ViewComponents. Considering how nice server-side rendering story is in ASP.NET, I feel like this is a setup that really works well in a lot of situations, from low-interactivity pages to really complex UIs. It is lightweight on the client side (just load the small htmx and alpine scripts), lets me do much of rendering server-side in .cshtml views, and which needs no JS build pipeline of any kind.
