Not sure what React has anything to do with this.
XSLT was pretty much never used as a rendering platform but for XML-data processing.
As JSON became the standard of API communication in early 2000s (less powerful, but also much less verbose and easier to manipulate in JS) XSLT became less relevant.
- omcnoe 1y agoParent comment mentioned react, I can sorta see the comparison if you squint. But I disagree with their assertion that a better maintained XSLT could compete.
- epolanski 1y agoI missed it. In any case, I'm not sure I agree with you, while JavaScript and CSS are composable out of the box HTML really lacks a native, fully declarative, composable way to build documents.
