Sorry, but I'll take Vue's or Svelte's (I prefer Vue's) DSLs over shit like `className` or sticking complex rendering logic in the HTML/template with unreadable `.map`s or God forbid nested ternaries, which is not a rare sight in React codebases. For my brain, seeing a bunch of `v-for`s is a lot clearer as to what's going to ultimately render than seeing a bunch of `map`s is going to render.

Also calling it "just JavaScript" might've been true in the Class component days, but in this frankenstein "functional" component paradigm we're at today it's far from the truth. I mean, it's not even a JS file, it's a JSX file for starters.

At the end of the day the whole JSX vs HTML-DSL thing comes down to a personal preference, and I doubt it's had much to contribute in terms of the success of the various frameworks. I know plenty of people working with React that despise JSX, and I know plenty of people working happily with Vue or Svelte that hate the DSL for templates.
