Re:Declarative Templates: A Better JavaScript View Layer by jugularkill on Sunday May 21, 2017 @05:15PM (#14389299)
"The big selling point for me with React is that I no longer have to learn yet another templating language."

Hmm, I get the impression you're tired of having to learn something new and you're happy to stick with what just works for you. . I understand but I'm not sure everyone feel that way, but I would be honest enough to say I think most people in FE development are on your wavelength.

Here's the entire syntax documentation: - Tags are functions - Attributes + props are object literals - Strings are text nodes, - Remaining parameters are child elements

It's nothing but basic JavaScript.

The separation is not enforced by API it's a discipline that can't be forced into React via JSX as far as I've tried.

Here you have: - No transpiler - No logic mixed in semantics - No vague component separation - No wrapping everything in a div (use ...spread) - No new syntax to learn

Maybe it's not for you, but the advantages are more than obvious.
