Full stack web development in a single Java file: An intro to Javalin and htmx
As the author of a very similar ancient library (JATL) to j2html I strongly discourage this approach. I base this on decades of experience of generating HTML from Java.

- j2html is looking for a maintainer

Dependency management fatigue, or why I forever ditched React for Go+Htmx+Templ
> JSX is a really elegant way to avoid templating, but we're back to templating with HTMX
Not necessarily. There are libraries in all mainstream languages that let you embed HTML generation directly in your backend server itself, without using a templating engine. Some examples:
Python: https://htpy.dev/
Scala: https://com-lihaoyi.github.io/scalatags/
OCaml: https://yawaramin.github.io/dream-html/ (that's mine)
> Routing, state management, auth, components, theming, API access, and more are all still problems that people add libraries for and those problems don't go away
Actually they kinda do go away. Have you ever tried Ruby on Rails? It does all this out of the box.

Second-Guessing the Modern Web
Nowadays I highly recommend HTML embedding libraries directly in the programming language. E.g. ScalaTags https://com-lihaoyi.github.io/scalatags/ or (my own) https://github.com/yawaramin/dream-html
Yes, you give up the ability of designers and frontend-only people to easily work with the HTML templates. But in exchange you get quite a lot.
