Good point. I do use react and I find jsx to be very convenient. I guess the question is: would I want to write something similar to JSX and have the browser be able to interpret that natively. I honestly don't know.
- smt88 12y agoYeah, I'm ambivalent myself. The main problem with W3 standards is that they assumed they knew what we'd want to do with them. No one predicted HTML would become the UI layer for complex replacements for desktop applications, so for a long time, it sucked at that job. Now they're trying to rectify those mistakes, but I think they might be going too far in the other direction. Instead, web standards need to be as simple, low-level, and generic as possible. The more HTML approaches an opinionated UI framework, the worse off we all are (in my opinion).
