I agree with this. I also think it that keeping logic out of views is a good idea, but I think that like many one-liners, there is more to it than just that. I think that there is a certain amount of logic that is necessary in our views. Otherwise, JavaScript would not exist. Manipulating the DOM via the vanilla API or via jQuery is only hiding that logic in another file. The logic is still there, and calling it "separate" is not useful, in my opinion. I like the way React bundles this view-specific logic and the markup together. Now I don't have to look at some HTML and wonder if some JavaScript somewhere is messing with it. CSS is another matter entirely. CSS doesn't change behavior and is another concern entirely, so I do still prefer it to live in its own files rather than being inline. React doesn't change anything about this, and that is fine by me.
