JSX is PHP-mix-HTML templates and JSP all over again. Those that fail to learn from history are doomed to relive it.

It's not. It's nothing but a `React.createElement` function call. It's a paper-thin XML-like DSL over real unadulterated JavaScript code.

HTML-in-PHP wasn't PHP. HTML-in-JSPwasn't Java. JSX in JavaScript is JavaScript. And that is a whole world of difference.
