This is actually great !
I think the discussion derives a bit on how could a JSX-like be implemented in practice, VS the benefits of a JSX-like approach where we don’t return templates but simply trees of element descriptors.
Maybe it is because I am trying to build more and more of my product offering in Liveview, but I see the appeal of doing away with templates entirely. I think the addition of :if, :for was a mistake (but an extremely understandable one if you look at the other template languages out there) because it delays further the switch to something capable of describing components in a sensible way.
We are very lucky to be able to build apps in an highly expressive language that runs on a VM particularly suited for the web. It would be great to not have to settle for a watered-down limited version of this language to write our render functions.
