A comment on Imba – A new programming language for the web. Parent comment
Perhaps you haven't looked at the examples.
>React is a template library, not a language.
Irrelevant -- and it's not such a clear cut distinction as you make it anyway.
A new language can have built in first class support for react like templating -- and this does.
>People aren't using react and angular because they have a nice syntax, that's just nice, they use them because you can build applications with them.
Yeah, so the idea behind imba is that if you could do the same things WITH a nice syntax and first class support it would be better.
Seriously do people read TFA?
