WHY GUMROAD DIDN'T CHOOSE HTMX

Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter

Gumroad initially liked htmx for its new project, Helper, as it was simpler than React. However, Gumroad ultimately used React/Next.js due to htmx's limitations in handling complex user interactions, state management, and scaling with the project's increasing complexity. htmx's server-centric approach led to clunky solutions for features like drag-and-drop, dynamic forms, and real-time collaboration.
