Totally. I've been very happy to see the world embrace htmx in the last year and it's given me confidence knowing I'm doing the right thing with ng-objects.

The methodology htmx uses is in many ways identical to what we've been doing in the WO world for almost 20 years using Ajax.framework (which I don't know if you're familiar with), a WO plugin framework that most importantly adds "partial page updates". So you can wrap a part of a page/component in a container element, and target it so only that element gets rendered/replaced on the client side when an action is invoked (link clicked, form submitted etc.).

And yes, combined with WO's stateful server side rendering and URLs, it's ridicilously powerful. I usually design my WO apps so users never actually see a stateful URL, they always land on "static URLs" while stateful intra-page work happens through page replacements. I love it.
