I read one post before that really resonates with me, couldn't recall from where though:

    You love JSX, you don't love React

Many of the jobs in my location requires React though, so I have to tolerate it somehow.

I’m the opposite. I loved React (before its hook madness) but I hated JSX. I’ve been using a lispy language to write React since it first came out. Initially went with someone’s pet project and eventually switched to ClojureScript. If you are already tolerating a build tool to transform your code into a form browsers can run, why not switch to a better language that’s designed for nested tree structures?

		Interesting to know. Personally I've also been trying out other library/frameworks, like Vue, AlpineJS, or just plain server side rendering. I have heard a little about ClojureScript here and there. Will take a look at it when I am free!
