Made a require hook to use JSX in Node

Hacker News

Hi HN! In a bout of Not Invented Here syndrome I decided to do away with Babel, mostly because I wanted the hobby project I'm working on to have as little dependencies as I could manage. So I made Gasket ( https://github.com/ground-hogs/gasket ) to parse the JSX into JS and Castella ( https://github.com/ground-hogs/castella ) to allow the usage of render functions so I can modularize a bit. It's very much not production ready and might take a long while to actually be, but I'm actually kinda proud of this; what do you think? Are there any obvious improvement opportunities I'm missing?
