HTMX is JavaScript.

When we say 'htmx allows us to avoid JavaScript', we mean two things: (1) we typically don't need to rely on the npm ecosystem, because we need very few (if any) third-party JavaScript libraries; and (2) htmx and HTML-first allow us to avoid writing a lot of custom JavaScript that we would have otherwise written.
