To the contrary, I think HTMX makes heavy use of XMLHttpRequest (or websockets). It just means that the HTML is prepared ("rendered") on the server, and then sent in small chunks to the frontend, without having to update the entire page. So that's in contrast to a web service approach that prepares the data on the server, and then performs the rendering into HTML on the frontend.
