- doublerebel 12y agoI can understand that -- I stayed off Alloy, I'd already created Tiger [1]. Tiger is very similar to React in that Views are just JS Objects. Conversely, React's JSX is very similar to Alloy. I think XML is a backwards approach these days, but naturally many devs are comfortable with it so it continues. The tiDev.io lead just joined Appcelerator as their new evangelist [2], I think he could be a good shot in the arm for the community.
