> HTMX becomes the fastest growing frontend toolkit in 2023 as devs feeling stack fatigue migrate from React and other JS toolkits towards a simpler architecture.

Haha, thanks for the laugh. Don't underestimate the network effects of a behemoth like React. Even React frameworks are starting to tend towards server side, like NextJS or Remix.

I would like to see the offline first philosophy adopted more thoroughly though.

So, it does seem funny, and I'm being a little OTT. But I do think it could genuinely be the fastest growing framework this year, it's absolutely not going to overtake React in total market share any time soon. But momentum wise it's going to be like a rocket.


easy to be the fastest growing when you are starting at zero!
