Solid.js feels like what I always wanted React to be

A react feature that I appreciate is that it is "just javascript". It's easier to learn how to loop or have conditionals in React because it uses native JS features. It makes it easier to understand, for me.

Having templating DSLs in other frameworks isn't a deal breaker, but it's a pro of React that I appreciate.

But I mean, it's not really. A hook invocation looks exactly like a javascript function invocation. Except it's subject to hook rules. Those don't come from javascript. Those are language rules that come from react. And even worse, the syntax for invoking a hook is exactly the same as the syntax for calling a function.
