JSX provides several advantages:
Simplified Syntax: JSX makes it easier to visualize and write component structures by resembling HTML, which developers are generally more familiar with. It allows embedding JavaScript expressions within curly braces {} directly in the markup.
Component Rendering: JSX simplifies the rendering of React components, enabling the use of familiar HTML-like tags to define UI components. This declarative style often leads to more readable and maintainable code.
JavaScript Power: Being embedded within JavaScript, JSX allows leveraging the full power of JavaScript expressions, such as variables, loops, and conditional statements, directly within the markup.
Regarding performance benefits, JSX itself doesn’t offer direct performance improvements over writing plain HTML/CSS/JS. When JSX is transpiled (converted) into JavaScript by tools like Babel, it essentially transforms JSX into plain JavaScript function calls (React.createElement()). React then uses these function calls to construct the virtual DOM, which it uses for efficient updates.
React's performance gains come from its virtual DOM implementation, not directly from JSX. The virtual DOM enables React to efficiently update the actual DOM by first updating a lightweight representation of it. When changes occur, React compares the virtual DOM with the actual DOM and applies only the necessary updates, minimizing direct manipulations to the browser's DOM, which can be costly in terms of performance.
While JSX itself doesn’t improve performance, React's underlying mechanisms, combined with JSX's ease of use and developer ergonomics, contribute to creating more performant web applications.
