What does "agnostic" really mean here? Or, how is something like React not "agnostic"?

  It's 100% interoperable with Native DOM API. Basically, CalDOM's reactivity system does not care how the Element is created as long as it's a Native DOM Element/Node. It could be _("+div") or document.createElement("DIV") or even jQuery("<div></div>") See example: https://caldom.org/#reactive-native-node https://caldom.org/#reactive-native-node Also, a CalDOM instance is just a wrapper around Native DOM Element(s). _("div").elem === document.querySelectorAll("div")[0] This interoperability allows for powerful integrations & to update the DOM directly by avoiding expensive virtual-DOM diffing. In React's world, everything is micro-managed(there're pros & cons), accessing DOM directly can be chaotic & usually not recommended.
