Haha, I have spent my fair share of time procrastinating over what a type-safe JSX alternative would look like for React. The most ergonomic solution (well, atleast for me) has been their old factory API upon which I layered a set of convenience utilities [1]. I have been trying it out in a hobby project and I find the reduction of className boilerplate, elimination of closing tags etc. quite productive. And unlike alternatives like react-pug etc. I don't have to compromise with type checking of attributes. I'll probably release it as a library after doing some performance evaluation and if needed, wrapping it in a babel-macro [2] that eliminates the runtime overhead. -- [1] Example in CodeSandbox: https://codesandbox.io/s/pedantic-shape-lq9q9?file=/src/reac... Code in github gist: https://gist.github.com/lorefnon/53377e4d6a6b13adbcfa155f
