how would htmx handle application like pages? for example, something along the lines of google spreadsheets? Where each cell is interactive.



htmx (and hypermedia in general) isn't a good fit for an online spreadsheet:

It would be nice if your pages are more tl;dr friendly than everything looking like part of a text book which exceeds the attention span to understand the page who's just getting into it.


Not a good fit for that. But you might be able to use HTMX on the settings page of that spreadsheet app.


I'm building a SaaS that looks a lot like spreadsheets, but more specialized for PPC managers (my customers).

Doing it in htmx. Works great.
