Hi Michael, Trust me it's not a kind of hype, Take a look at this video, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=POK4Zp1oRN8 This man, Wim Deblauwe , Explains it with thymeleaf and spring framework. But the same also applies with OFBiz and freemarker. And of course, we have to provide complex examples for OFBIz, And search for more videos for this man , He is considered a Spring+thymeleaf+Htmx tech leader (he has written 2 books about).
