What's your thoughts on hypermedia as opposed to JSON APIs?
I've been looking at HTMX and thinking that hypermedia sounds great. No need to send JSON data to the client and have to parse it. Instead, the API returns HTML strings and you just put it in the DOM.
But it can't be that easy—or that convienient. Or else it'd be much more widely used. So I turn to you, my fellow front-end friends! What's your thoughts on hypermedia APIs? Do you think it's a good idea? Why or why not?
