+# Rosetta for RSX
+---
+
+Dioxus sports its own templating language inspired by C#/Kotlin/RTMP, etc. It's pretty straightforward.
+
+However, it's NOT HTML. This is done since HTML is verbose and you'd need a dedicated LSP or IDE integration to get a good DX in .rs files.
+
+RSX is simple... It's similar enough to regular Rust code to trick most IDEs into automatically providing support for things like block selections, folding, highlighting, etc.
+
+To accomodate the transition from HTML to RSX, you might need to translate some existing code.
+
+This library provids a central AST that can accept a number of inputs:
+
+- HTML
+- Syn (todo)
+- Akama (todo)
+- Jinja (todo)
+
+From there, you can convert directly to a string or into some other AST.
