Hypermedia is a concept that extends the idea of hypertext by allowing for more complex interactions and data representations. It enables the use of AJAX, WebSockets, and Server-Sent Events directly in HTML using attributes, without writing any JavaScript. It reuses an “old” concept, Hypermedia, to handle the modern web in a more HTML-like and natural way.
