To be fair I believe it is still in alpha. I think there are a lot of rough pieces right now, but it is interesting they've conceptually have a means to pull off this sort of thing by identifying the similarities in state management. There are a number of edge cases I believe in terms of execution timing, so we will see as it develops, but the idea seems promising.

Yeah, for sure. It's a very cool idea. I really hope it pans out. I moved my personal projects off of React and onto Svelte, I really miss JSX vs their template syntax.

Where I stand these days is Svelte is great, but I don't want to give up the good parts from React.

My personal slant is what lead SolidJS to use explicit syntax with JSX while doing the compilation/reactive no-VDOM thing. Turns out it is really performant being explicit while harnessing the flexibility of JSX.
