    I love the idea! I could imagine something similar created for other languages too. Perhaps written in a way that a template could be reused in, let's say Django, and a JS React frontend. With all the type-safety that tsx provides.

    W3C: Why can't we just have <includes src="./header.html"> and be done with it?

    one thing i love about rust's macros is that you can accomplish this without needing a separate file type or inventing syntax

       #[component]
       pub fn HomePage(user: Option<User>) -> Element {
          rsx! {
             Layout { 
                title: "Home",
                if let Some(u) = user {
                   h1 { "Welcome back, {u.name}!" }
                   a { href: "/users/{u.id}", "Your profile" }
                } else {
                   h1 { "Welcome, guest!" }
                   a { href: "/login", "Log in" }
                }
             }
          }
       }

      but you have invented syntax

      This is just Twig templates, crazy. It's cool that Rust can do this out of a box

        yep and you get rust's lsp support too, autoformatting, etc.

        this is rsx, but there are other macros that look just like html. i prefer this though, it's much more compact and readable imo

      > you can accomplish this

      That's not HTML though, you have to learn a whole new dsl that must conform to rust parser rules. So, not the same thing at all.

        You can do actual html. This is Leptos, a Solidjs like rust library:

            #[component]
            fn App() -> impl IntoView {
                let (count, set_count) = signal(0);
                view! {
                    <button
                        on:click=move |_| set_count.set(3) >
                        "Click me”</button>
                    <p>{move || count.get() * 2}</p>
                }
            }
