React Templates is a lightweight precompiler that converts .rt files (an extended HTML format) into plain JavaScript functions returning React virtual DOM, with no runtime dependencies. It offers an HTML-like alternative to JSX with directives like rt-if, rt-repeat, and rt-scope, supporting AMD, CommonJS, ES6, TypeScript, and globals output.

Use cases

• separate HTML markup from React component logic
• compile HTML-like templates to React code without JSX
• precompile .rt template files in a webpack or gulp build
• write React views using plain HTML syntax
• avoid JSX for components with lots of markup

When to choose

• your team prefers HTML-style templates over JSX
• you want zero runtime template libraries and precompiled React code
• you need clear separation of presentation and logic in React components

When to avoid

• you are starting a new React project today - JSX and modern tooling are the ecosystem standard
• you need TypeScript type checking inside templates
• the project requires actively maintained tooling with recent updates
