There's an interesting video by Netflix where they discuss using React in their stack. To increase performance on many of Netflix's TV or Console based UI's they have their own rendering engine they're using instead of the manufacturer's browser engine. This means any of React's "speed" improvements are a moot point so instead they use it because of its simplicity for UI layouts. [VIDEO]

If you're interested in doing it with React, here's a video explaining how to do a custom backend: [VIDEO] You basically need to change BackendIDOperations and ReactEventListener to send/receive messages vs talking to the real APIs. It's already set up in the codebase to do this (because it actually worked at one time). Webpack, per usual, already thought of this and has an answer for you :) [LINK]

Its also important to consider the environment as well since JSX is potentially much bigger than the web. JSX is much like other generic user interface markup languages[0] and like many other is simply a dialect of XML. Any interface that can be represented with XML/HTML or any other markup language can use JSX and optionally react. We are already seeing this boom with in native mobile environments with React Native, NativeScript, Titanium... Here are several examples where JSX is used that is not a browser: - Native desktop apps for Linux, Mac, and Windows (Not including Electron/NW.js)[1][2][3][4] - TVs with AppleTV apps or Netflix's Gibbon[5][6] - Command line apps as stdin/stdout with react-blessed[7]/mylittledom[8] - Direct to Canvas[9]/pixi.js[10] - Latex documents[11] - Web Audio[12] - Conole.logs[13] - Truly custom direct to hardware[14] as some C code like: `digitalWrite(led, HIGH)` I definitely believe JSX could use standardization separate from any implementation, JavaScript or otherwise.
