Its not about performance. innerHTML is actually fast. Its about security and maintainability. InnerHTML makes it easy not only for the developer but also an hacker to inject code into a web page/app. innerHTML is like a global missile satellite network that can fire anywhere at any time. Instead you want to design like a plumber, where data flows via a pipe to the database, then back again in another pipe which change the state of the view. You should not have a single HTML tag in your single page application!
