Definitely getting coldfusion vibes from many years ago. I think the tags are nice for some of the lifestyle and sideeffects issues. I'm not sure how much use they will be for server only use cases. I still like the $ {} expressiveness.
That's the nice thing here since you just add them as needed. So if things are mostly static you are just writing normal idiomatic HTML. It almost encourages you to just add little bits here and there only as needed. But the real gains for for us is the syntax is composable unlike using a keyword and still explicit so when we get to Marko 6 this unlocks incredible things. We can basically just strip out all the static stuff in between and generate the smallest optimized bundles.
The biggest thing this does for the server case over our $ scriptlets is it forces everything to be a declaration or be denoted as a side effect. Side effects run only in the browser so it keeps things streamlined. You can always import outside JavaScript or define functions still. <const> is basically the new $ and in Marko 5 Tags preview basically compiles to it. When we reveal the new Async patterns coming I think the missing pieces will come together.

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
