I use my years of experience, I don't need gut feeling for it. I really don't talk about backend, absolutely. While we have "createElement", we will use it with conditional cases and as result we will have mess of NOT-BUSINESS-logic and HTML code.

If you're using createElement you're doing it wrong.
I am playing around with React and if you want to keep it JSscripty (being the only dev who actually likes JS) or you want to use coffee script then createElement isn't actually horrible to use.

Especially not if you make an alias to ce or something like that.

if you want the best of both worlds, i use cjsx (https://github.com/jsdf/coffee-react) for my react components e.g. https://github.com/Azerothian/reacta-test/blob/master/react/...
Exactly! It's shortest version of what I think about JSX.
