"Complex mini app" is one hell of a concept.

It can be. Think something like a file viewer or a text editor, or a music players. You can probably make do with vanilla javascript, but there’s some threshold where using react to take care of the state<=>ui relationship is worth it.

A text editor or music player is hardly "mini".

Again, the issue with htmx is that it pretends like it is not a framework, when in fact, it is just a second attempt at angular 1.0, with even more naive assumptions about web apps.

		> A text editor or music player is hardly "mini". If it's a sub-function of a bigger ensemble that mostly dies something else then it's fine to call them “mini apps”. For instance a bank app may contain a text editor for the internal messaging feature of the app, that would count as a min-app in that context.
