that's exactly why I'll be using HTMX, just write backend with SpringBoot and then use HTMX for frontend. Thanks for the video, now I know for sure this is exactly what I need.
Yeah, this so called lightweight js libraries like HTMX (or alpine JS or hyperscript) that are defined locally within HTML are really something that is great for django developers because of django template engine. I am now making app that is just simplified version of facebook, and it is possible to do something like that with this dev kit combo i mentioned. Maybe for some usecases can be overkill in comparison to traditional frontend libraries like react or angular, but on another hand it has its good sides. In general, these lightweight libraries really give possibility for django devs to extend their knowledge to frontend without js overkill code. I hope these libraries will show they full potential in startups. My experiance are that are great but knowledge of javascript is a must however. Glad to see you again Dennis, you are the one that showed me first things i could do with django :)
Same here: Django + HTMX/Alpine You can build with Django something heavy on the back end and enhance it considerably with HTMX in the front. Really enhances the dev + user experience. Before that it was either many "next" page reloads or ad-hoc JS around.
Exactly, it is one of the best tools for developers who doesn't use more javascript. Personally i'm pretty comfortable with DRF and React, and with react i can have access to a lot of tooling including many UI component libraries ( not a UI person ), it will be interesting to see how the htmx ecosystem moves forward. Anyways as always Great video 👏
Try looking at all the Web APIs the browsers offer directly, that are mostly full cross-browser. There is nothing any framework does that you can't just do yourself. With the current ECMA and browser Web APIs, there is already no need for any libraries or frameworks. 25 years as a web developer and I still don't need anything but vanilla. We already have to use the browser, so why keep adding to it? Work with it, it's already there!
Agreed. HTML/CSS/JS are now quite powerful and elegant in 2025. This was not always the case, but in 2025, don't waste your time on these these markup language mutations!
Hello Denish! I learned django from your videos, thanks . Now, I am looking at htmx to do form dependence in the django model fields. I haven't htmx learned so well.
yeah it really is great ...it saved me when i ended up writing normal forms and logic for my project and i realized that i needed ajax( which was too overwhelming for me) Minimal, Intuitive, Useful
Thanks for the video, I took your udemy course and I made a service for living your course helped me a lot thanks. If you are familiar with DDD or MSA with django or integrating celery or kafka with django.. or django on ECS .. please launch any course about them I will appreciate it.. man
I wrote a massive insurance platform for a client, and HTMX was a life saver in getting some real-time interactivity up and running.
How much time did you take to deliver it?
@ about 2 months’ish

Does this go well with Bootstrap as well? Or it replaces it completely?
Hello Denish!
I learned django from your videos, thanks . Now, I am looking at htmx to do form dependence in the django model fields. I haven't htmx learned so well.
tried it and cant recommend at all. once the site gets too complex is a pain in the ass to manage
How Big or complex is your site?
can i switch to htmx mid project ?
Yes, You can integrate incrementally
Where have you been bro? great video
Thank you! I have been busy with work. Hoping to stay more consistent tho
I am trying it with Deno , SQLite, EJS. I am a newbie but want to try simple frameworks first
Bro finally remembered his password
I kept typing "pass123" but it was "pass1234"
😂
