We’re not talking about XML as a data transport format.

As a way to ultimately render a view, it has never been elegant.

I’ve done it every possible way:

- Templating libraries

- XHTML with embedded XML data

- XML and XLST

- XML embedded in JavaScript (EMCAScript), aka React before React existed

- React, which is similar EMCAScript

I used the first public releases of React. I was immediately sold. No one had to sell anything to me. I knew it was going to win.

I can’t imagine anyone with strong experience in all these ways possibly think that these other ways are more enjoyable.

p.s. I’m not talking about Redux. I was never sold on Redux/Flux.
