Funny you say that. JSX existed as a language that compiles to javascript before Facebook choosed to use that name :

https://github.com/jsx/JSX

and don't get me started on flux,relay or graphQL ...

And even before that Firefox supported a different JSX which also let you embed xml in JS. Looks like they removed it some time ago...
I think you are talking about e4x. It is really too bad it didn't end up in the spec.
choosed -> chose
Yeah, I always had hard time with this verb, excuse my french.
