[cies]

I frown at JSX. Just a layer of abstraction that is so "leaky" that you have to know what actually goes on in the layers below or you are fucked.

It looks simpler at first glance/ to a untrained eye; but it's just adding complexity without really solving any problems.

I like approaches like Kotlinx.html, scalatags, Elm's HTML package or HtmlFlow. They are also abstractions, but they add typesafety that html-as-a-string does not offer. On top of that you get breakpoints, code completion, and you can keep working in one language.
