htmx focuses on extending HTML as a hypermedia and, like HTML, can work with whatever backend can produce HTML, which is pretty much all of them.

We call this the HOWL (Hypermedia On Whatever you'd Like) stack.

I have yet to use it in anything, but conceptually I'm a fan of this kind of freedom of choice. It's always a bummer to see something that looks cool for frontend use and find that it's tied explicitly to a particular back end.
