>> Is the Django equivalent of Hotwired.dev as polished? Whats the Django story around mobile apps?
No. Even Hotwire is not equivalent to Rails. You could even use Hotwire WITH Django. Take a look at https://htmx.org and/or https://unpoly.com (there are others) for libraries that has the same HTML-over-the-wire moto, just like Hotwire.
>> Is Rails still into magic? How does Ruby remain relevant in the ML wave?
ML wave? Would ML mean Machine Learning? If so, makes no sense to compare a web framework to something else not web related.
