Proposal for Standardized JSX

  JSX can become valid, standardized ECMAScript syntax.

  But first we need a valid syntactic sugar transformation, which I propose here.

  Then we need to implement it in things like babel[0] bun[1] and deno[2].

  Then, frameworks would adopt it as an optional alternative implementation.

  Eventually, it could gain widespread support and become standardized.

  The closest thing to this right now is solidjs. Super close to plain javascript but with tree shake build

  Why object literals instead of the standard function calls? Seems much less flexible.
