Plan and bootstrap server-driven web applications with htmx. Use when choosing htmx versus an SPA framework, setting up htmx in a server-rendered app, designing the first CRUD workflow, explaining the htmx mental model, or deciding how much JavaScript a server-driven feature needs.

# htmx Foundations
Use this skill before implementation details get scattered across endpoints, templates, and browser scripts. The goal is to keep the server in charge of durable state while htmx adds targeted interactivity through HTML attributes.
## Core Model
- The server owns persistence, authorization, validation, and rendered HTML.
- The browser sends normal HTTP requests from annotated HTML elements.
- Endpoints return HTML fragments when updating part of a page and full pages when supporting direct navigation.
- htmx swaps response HTML into a selected target instead of expecting JSON plus client-side rendering.
- Add browser-side JavaScript only for local state, specialized widgets, or imperative integration points.
