one thing i love about rust's macros is that you can accomplish this without needing a separate file type or inventing syntax

   #[component]
   pub fn HomePage(user: Option<User>) -> Element {
      rsx! {
         Layout { 
            title: "Home",
            if let Some(u) = user {
               h1 { "Welcome back, {u.name}!" }
               a { href: "/users/{u.id}", "Your profile" }
            } else {
               h1 { "Welcome, guest!" }
               a { href: "/login", "Log in" }
            }
         }
      }
   }

That's not HTML though, you have to learn a whole new dsl that must conform to rust parser rules. So, not the same thing at all.

		You can do actual html. This is Leptos, a Solidjs like rust library: `#[component] fn App() -> impl IntoView { let (count, set_count) = signal(0); view! { <button on:click=move \|_\| set_count.set(3) > "Click me”</button> <p>{move \|\| count.get() * 2}</p> } }`

		i prefer it, but you can also get html if you want eg `html! { <div onclick=\|_ev: web_sys::MouseEvent\| {}> You can type text right into the elements { component } { text_var } </div> };`

This is just Twig templates, crazy. It's cool that Rust can do this out of a box

		yep and you get rust's lsp support too, autoformatting, etc. this is rsx, but there are other macros that look just like html. i prefer this though, it's much more compact and readable imo
