I inherited an MVC app that has a bunch of jQuery rendering crap and I would like to move to server side components - since you seem to be into Blazor Server side - have you heard of HTMX ?
What would you say would be the benefit of Blazor vs HTMX and Razor Pages for subviews ?
My experience with Microsoft UI toolkits after winforms, is that they are all janky over-engineered stuff (Silverlight/WPF/Xamarin/Maui) terrible tooling and support compared to alternatives. And Blazor using websockets makes me believe it is the same. The compile to WASM idea is a typical example of this.
So what would be the selling point of Blazor ? It feels like you are just bundling stuff into Blazor magic when you could KISS with something simple like HTMX ?
