All your endpoints are delivering partial HTML instead of JSON and you can switch to, say, React for your next feature?

I mean, you technically can, but for that amount of work and/or friction you can pretty much go between any 2 frameworks.

There is nothing preventing you from having new endpoints serve frontend JSON, or from refactoring select endpoints away from HTMX.

If you are refactoring everything because a small subset of features didn't fit the HTMX glove, that's an engineering management failure.

You can say the same for the conversion between any 2 frontend frameworks, or even wordpress (you can just add another php file and do whatever next to your existing stuff), what's the special thing about htmx here?
