Return To Simplicity: Architect Hypermedia REST applications using Hanami + HTMX
summary
Claims a working Hanami + HTMX stack that replaces heavy JS frontends: demo repository with incremental commits shows a task app that actually deletes and searches items using real HTTP verbs, server-side partials and hx-trigger keyup debouncing, hx-push-url history updates, and an htx loader spinner. Uses dry-rb types/containers, ROM persistence, dependency injection via a container, and a convenience gem Hanami Smith to scaffold projects; Hanami 2.1 is noted as beta. Everything runs locally and quickly in the demo, with concrete code for params validation, partial rendering, and response headers.
