The frontend story in Django is shifting:

⚡ #HTMX and #Alpine.js are on the upswing
⬇️ React and jQuery are declining in usage

The trend? A return to server-rendered templates and simpler interactivity.

What frontend setup have you been working with lately? Tell us in the comments!

TIL, there is the incron service which is similar to crontab, but executes scripts based not on timing, but on file change, e.g. when a certain file is updated.
