React as a Specification

Opened this issue · 0 comments

React can be a language agnostic design pattern.

Many languages have implemented their own version of JavaScript. A natural step for them is to come up with some sort of implementation for React.

Rather than tying React to JavaScript, imagine making it more like JSX or GraphQL--a specification that languages are free to implement.

EXAMPLE

Of course, then the main challenge is getting browsers to be able to use that non-JS code... i.e. Shift the paradigm from thinking of JS as another scripting language to it serving the purpose of a VM for the browser.
