To be clear, I didn't mean that I want React-the-library baked into every platform. I do think that React-the-mental-model is superior to, say, Cocoa-the-mental-model, and by baking this model into the underlying layers of the stack we'd stand to see a lot of performance gains. Just my 2 cents though.

Surely you're really just talking about component-oriented design, which basically every framework has now converged on - React, Angular, Ember, Vue, Riot, Polymer, etc.

Why is this comment being downvoted? Can't anyone else see the poor taste in words? I'm not sure it deserves to be flagged but definitely worth calling out.

Yes, it is poor taste, unnecessarily insulting, and assumes 'we' == 'US'. "Worth calling out"? Nope. That puts unnecessary emphasis on it, and creates unnecessary discussion. Either the comment should be upvoted or downvoted. Readers are mature enough to decide that. I tend to downvote any complaints or discussion about moderation (including this one by myself if I could) because it is boring/offtopic read. YMMV.

Not the loop. JSX way of declaring UI structure.

Do you mean like XAML and WPF ? https://msdn.microsoft.com/pl-pl/library/ms752059(v=vs.110)....

    const Header = ({ color, children }) => {children}
    
    // Gets transpiled into:
    const Header = ({ color, children }) => createElement('h1', { style: { color } }, children)
