HTMX + Dart = A Good Idea?
summary
Demo shows a working blog comment flow built with Dart Frog and HTMX where form submits change from full-page reloads to fragment updates using hx-post hx-swap targeting the comments div. Server routes return just the comments HTML, the browser posts and replaces that fragment, and delete uses hx-delete for semantic HTTP. Result: interactive site with no bespoke front-end JS, file-based routing, and faster UX while keeping server-rendered HTML.
