They say it's "React-like", but afaik it doesn't do the cool things with a virtual dom? What's cool about React is how it doesn't write to the DOM all the time, only when there is a diff. Does Riot do that? If not, thanks but it doesn't compete with React.

Also, does it render to string?

Yup. In Riot the DOM is only updated when there is a diff.

Server side support is coming so you can do "isomorphic" apps and render components on the HTML page as string.

Current 2.0.1 does not support this feature.

Being able to render progressively to the response buffer would be great
