It's been awhile since I did any frontend work. Is there something that has taken jQuery's place?

But why bother with creating a new language

I can just do items.map(item => 〈Item key={item.id} item={item} /〉)

I don't think this is a very good example. You've just said not to use a new language, then used JSX, a new language.
