As a pro web developer, I think JSX will be the perfect 
abstraction for maximum adoption. React, being one of the most 
popular library for developing web applications, is loved by the 
community. Its the perfect way to model UI components that fits 
well in my logic.

"ReactJS provided the solution that developers were looking for. 
It uses JSX (a unique syntax that allows HTML quotes as well as 
HTML tag syntax application for rendering specific subcomponents) 
This is very helpful in promoting construction of 
machine-readable codes and at the same time compounding 
components into a single-time verifiable file. ...
...
It allows developers to write their apps within JavaScript. JSX 
is one of the greatest features that not only makes ReactJS easy 
but fun too. Developers can easily make a new UI feature and see 
it appear in real time. It brings HTML directly into your JS. ...
...
Components allow developers to break down complex UI. The idea of 
components is what makes ReactJS unique. Instead of worrying 
about the entire web app, it makes it possible to break the 
complex UI/UX development into simpler components. This is 
crucial in making every component more intuitive."

I'm personally not tied to any framework or library. Only use 
React/JSX because its solves a real and practical problem for me.
