I am very much interested in qualitative feedback on spasm's

The short version is, it's pretty clear Sebastiaan has
designed spasm with the goal of giving the library
compile-time information on the structure of the widgets to
render, to avoid React's superfluous updates and prop
comparison; that said, I think it's possible to give the
library that information without losing React's "your
components are all functions, don't worry about how the data
is updated" simplicity, which I think is an area where spasm
comes up short.
That would be awesome. I initially tried very hard to stick to
React/JSX functional rendering. I could not find a way to make
it a zero-cost abstraction, but maybe you have more success!
Nice example of collaboration and good attitude. One day hope to
contribute in such a manner.
