Web development is, and will always be, just a game of finding increasingly cursed unique ways to concatenate HTML strings
One day I'll find a reason to use html!. One day.

This looks like how React components are written if you make the weird choice of not using the JSX syntax extension for React elements. I wonder if you could make a JSX-like DSL with Rust macros. JSX really helps for making this kind of stuff bearable.

Wow. Looks like my browser renders imgur nonfunctional at this point. Weird.
Genuine question: what's wrong with templating engines?
