"Minimal", maybe, "small to no", nay :D

Considering the original phrase was 'minimal or no', I am glad that you now agree.

It's difficult to take this seriously. Just wait until you find out most of Python is written in C! Very dishonest!

On the contrary, you are still wrong. HTMX is simply using JavaScript and looking at it, it isn't minimal (it's still 15 kB min+gzip).

Now I understand, you're just obtuse.

This seems like an exceedingly mean-spirited and unconstructive type of response to have to people who have been giving up their time trying to explain a different point of view to you. I would also gently point out the HN guidelines at this point.

I note you haven't responded to my more substantive reply here,[0] so I am unsure you saw it. I would encourage you to read it with less of a zero-sum 'I-win-you-lose' mentality. I won't be engaging with you further though.
