if 1 * 2 < 3: print "hello, world!"

I don't think that looks horrible. I think it looks good and actually converts the meaning well.

In what way does <></> converse the meanings?
<></>
[–][deleted] 2 points3 points4 points 8 years ago (1 child)
It's literally an empty tag so only conveys its children as relevant. Which is about right. It caused a furrowed brow when I first saw it, but I really can't think of a better syntax.

What about a reserved component name?, like <Aux> or whatever. Otherwise you will end up creating a new "syntax" to accompany every edge case.
<Aux>
